This course guides you through the fundamentals for creating courses and workshops that set your learners up for success.

I've been designing learning experiences for over 25 years. I’ve seen where creators excel and where they stumble, and how to avoid those mistakes.

Once you understand and can apply the three fundamentals, you'll create experiences that give learners what they need to achieve their goals, and yours.

You probably know your subject area inside out, based on your own experience or by collaborating with others (people and/or AI).

Now it's time to deliver that content in ways that engage learners and give them the knowledge, skills, and attitudes they need to achieve their goals.

Three fundamentals lie at the heart of all great learning experiences, including online courses, live or virtual workshops, masterclasses, videos, games, and simulations.

1. Set objectives that target feelings and attitudes, as well as intellectual knowledge and skills
2. Select only the need-to-know content that directly supports those objectives
3. Identify the format (delivery mode) and strategies last, based on your objectives and content

This course shows you how to apply these fundamentals so you can create learning experiences that move people, not just metrics.

The Learning Blueprint: Foundations course is designed for people who want to create powerful and relevant learning experiences.

You'll find this course especially valuable if you are:

• An expert or consultant creating a course or program for clients
• An entrepreneur or coach developing a learning-based offer
• A content creator or community strategist who teaches through media
  

You don't need a background in education or instructional design. I've got that covered. This course sets you up to create learning experiences that will change how people feel, think, and lead their lives.

Why I Created This Course

I've spent over 25 years working with organizations to create meaningful learning - and I've seen how often people get going without a clear plan for what makes learning work well.

The Learning Blueprint: Foundations course distills the fundamentals of learning design into clear practical guidelines for creating meaningful learning experiences that make the difference.

My goal is to help you share what you know in ways that move minds, open possibilities, and create lasting impact.
