Instructional Design

Design Documents

Design documents offer a high level overview of the organization of material within a course, and include the purpose for the training, the audience, the course objectives, and a content outline. This early phase of design allows stakeholders and subject matter experts (SMEs) to focus on and iterate the depth, breadth, and the overall organization of content within a learning solution.
