Pre- or co-requisites: CIEP 470 Principles of Instructional Design
In this course, learners will identify a problem/cause/solution to a performance problem within an organization using the Human Performance Improvement model. Learners will select a learning intervention and create an evaluation plan to assess its effectiveness. Learners will compare/contrast the instructional design process within a variety of organizations.
Compare/contrast ID teams in organizations; Analyze data to identify performance gaps/causes; Select a performance intervention based on needs analysis; Compose an evaluation plan; Identify Change Management strategies for implementation

Pre- or co-requisites: CIEP 470 Principles of Instructional Design
Human-centered design places humans and their needs at the center of the design, compels us to take a holistic/thoughtful approach to our designs. This course uses these principles to examine the design process to create learning experiences that are inclusive and responsive. Learners will also craft their own design philosophy.
Describe principles of human-centered design; Create a space for learning that incorporates principles of human-centered design; Critique the application and use of these principles; Formulate your own philosophy of design

Pre-requisites: CIEP 470 Principles of Instructional Design, last semester of the program, program director approval; Corequisite: 8W1 remaining course requirements must be completed
Students will apply program outcomes to real-world settings in preparation for an ID career. The course combines research and service learning towards the creation of a project, portfolio and professional artifact. Students will partner with a SME to build a module tailored to their course or institution.
Conduct a needs assessment, compose learning goals/outcomes, and create an evaluation plan by partnering with a subject matter expert; Create a training module incorporating SME content; Develop a professional portfolio
