KAPP NOTES | MONDAY, AUGUST 1, 2011 Design Instruction Like a Game Developer

ONEHUNDREDFORTYWORDS | MONDAY, AUGUST 1, 2011  My Transition from Training to Elearning Design
Recently, a friend asked me how I transitioned from training to instructional design. In the interest of possibly helping others, I thought I’d share my path here. 1) Starting as both a test prep trainer and a software trainer, I volunteered for ILT curriculum design projects, which led to blended and elearning.

If he was an eLearning developer instead of a rockstar icon this could very well be what he's been looking for.what we've all been waiting for. Or not.
