Certified Training And Development Professional Program

The Department of Educational Administration and Human Resource Development coordinates the Training and Development Certification Program. This program is an intensive hands-on, competency-based program for Training and Development practitioners who are already experienced but desire to polish their skills or for individuals new to the field of training and development. Unlike the previous programs, the Training and Development Professional Certification Program will be based on the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implementation and Evaluation) model that consists of five systematic steps used to create instructional products for a variety of settings. Each phase represents a series of tasks that ensure development efforts stay on target. This model represents a complete instructional design workflow. It has built-in planning activities, quality assurance checkpoints, and feedback cycles. The Training and Development Professional Certification Program will present the ADDIE model through a real-world corporate training perspective. The program content that will be covered includes the following: action research, data interpretation, delivery/platform skills, diversity, e-learning, emotions in training, evaluation, globalization business, HRD & strategic planning, mergers and acquisitions, coaching, organizational learning, training/knowledge management, training across generations, and training analysis.
