Assessment-based Certificate Program: 3-Part Series

About this Webinar
Certification programs and certificate programs are designed to meet very different needs. The organization that aims to recognize professionals who meet established knowledge, skills, or competencies (as in certification) may be missing an opportunity to build capacity and recognition of a specialty area of practice or set of skills.

This three-part educational series provides information on the the purpose of assessment-based certificate programs and the sound instructional design principles that should be integrated into them.

  • Webinar 1: Assessment-based Certificate Programs: Why They May Be Preferable to Certification
    • Join Brian Bontemp, PhD and Michelle Nolin, CPLP as they distinguish the unique purposes and goals of assessment-based certificate programs vs. certification programs. Identify the needs of your organization and your stakeholders to determine which program best suits your desired outcomes.
  • Webinar 2 and 3: Instructional Design I and Instructional Design II
    • Join Michelle Nolin, CPLP, Informa Training Partners, and explore the basics of instructional design, including an overview of the principles of adult learning, which are applicable to any education and training offered by an organization. Then, consider how the instructional design principles are incorporated in the ICE 1100 Standard for accreditation and should be integrated into your assessment-based certification programs.
