The More Than Blended Learning (>BL) process is a refreshingly different but simple new approach to the design of learning solutions.
Blended solutions combine contrasting learning methods and media in order to maximise effectiveness and efficiency. The >BL approach goes a step further to ensure the blend results in application to real-world tasks and the learner is supported along the whole length of their learning journey.
Building your capability
Over the years, we have trained 100s of designers in the the design of blended solutions. Over that time we have been able to validate and refine our design methodology to the stage at which we are 100% confident it will help our clients in just about any sector. That’s Skills Journey.
In terms of formal programmes, we have:
- The learning solution designer’s programme: A fully-blended solution in its own right, designed for cohorts of learning professionals working together.
Working alongside you
We can work with you to coach your designers as they work on real projects. This service works brilliantly as a follow-up to the programmes listed above.
Doing it for you
For those times when you don’t have the time or the experience to do everything for yourself, we’re happy to lend a hand and undertake design work for you.
