Training Project Documentation For Adult Education

Adult education has a number of requirements which are somewhat different to the world of corporate training. In an adult education college we start with a Scheme of Work, a high level planning document which outlines a number of key project requirements.
When you are seeking funding for a project, your Scheme of Work puts forward the purpose of the learning project, outlines current resources and identifies any further resource requirements. It also identifies who your learners will be.
The following Scheme of Work was successfully used on a media skills project targeted at the following beneficiary groups who attended a day centre:
the unemployed, refugees, lone parents, people recovering from mental illness, lone parents and ex-offenders.
The document should include where you plan to run the sessions, the duration of the daily sessions and the number of daily sessions. For example, the sessions will be run from Titchmark Room at Banfield Tech from 10am-12 noon and the afternoon session from 1pm to 3pm:30pm. There will be six, three day courses starting on May 6th and the classroom can accommodate 6 students.
The learners will be screened by the Tech to identify appropriate computer literacy skills.
The document should include a breakdown of the resources required. As this is an IT project it requires a number of hardware and software resources.
With regard to resources: hardware:
3 digital cameras 3 Sony DV recorders 3 Dell multimedia laptops 3 tripods 1 TV 1 DVD player DVD media courseware
software:
Movie Magix Edit Pro v10, SonicDVD, Photoshop Elements v3
The aim of this workshop is for learners to film and produce a quality DVD of their project within the 3 day timescale.
This will involve shooting video footage and still images, downloading from tape to hard disk, cutting, fading in/fading out, merging clips, adding music, text, slide shows, DVD structures, menus and chapter marks. A testing phase will follow where we burn files to DVD and then replay them on TV.
Many of the students will not have had access to this technology and the subtext of the project is to demonstrate the hardware/software, develop the exploration of personal creativity and build self-confidence.
It is an empowering experience to produce a quality DVD that the learners can show to their friends, it builds self-esteem and produces a feeling of social inclusion.
The assessment of students' progress is quite straightforward with this project because of the visual nature of what is being produced.

A Brief History of Online Education

The internet has given us many gifts throughout the years - from music and video game codes to not so G-rated material. Therefore, it is no surprise that e-learning has made such a big splash in the web world. Within the past ten years, online education and internet training has provided many people with a new incentive to learn.
During the early 80's, e-training was just starting to become a potential creation. Companies and educational institutes were strictly hiring instructors to train their students. This was because computers were only beginning to grow, therefore making it difficult to come up with any other plan. These instructors were great at the time because it allowed training to be very hands on, especially since students were able to interact with their classmates and visually see the lessons. However, the problem with having just instructors was that there was a lot of blank time in between. Students were not being able to learn the material on their own time, thus difficulty set in when training with hoards of other people.
Luckily, as the computer industry started to expand, e-training was becoming a reality. For the next ten years, multimedia was at everyone's fingertips. Companies were just starting to use PowerPoint; a program that allowed people to create visually enhanced presentations. Video games and other multimedia programs were also popping up, thus resulting in a technology overhaul. As these advances continued, online education was only a step away.
The first type of online education was in the mid 1990's. This was when the internet was a great success, and multimedia was being taken to another level. The first few e-training companies dedicated their services to mainly businesses who did not want to hire trainers. Although the online education courses were great for new employees who needed training, it was only the beginning of an uphill process. Education online was very slow, as pictures were small and the entire course was text based. Nevertheless, it was beginning to catch the eye of many.
As the 1990's quickly ended, the millennium marked an entirely new period for technology. E-learning was finally on the map as online education courses were now very popular at colleges and businesses. Great streaming media, online video access, and fast web site servers made it possible for online education to make quite a splash. Students were also now able to learn from their homes during their own time, since working a job and going to school was quite a difficult task.
Today, online education has come a long way. Instructors are now being hired to solely teach online, which usually consists of being filmed for lesson videos. Companies are also hiring these online education programs, since a training session can not only be quick, but also be accessed at any time of the day or night. For many, it is a great opportunity because it gives us all more knowledge. We not only are able to get college degrees through this type of e-learning, but we also can have a life, without having to stay at the office overnight just to learn some material.

Universities in Adelaide
Adelaide has always been a trailblazer when it comes to university education. The University of Adelaide was one of the first campuses in the world to open its doors to women (some 50 years before Cambridge and Oxford).
The city has produced three Nobel Prize winners – more than any other Australian capital – and some 100 Rhodes Scholars.
Adelaide’s three long-established universities - Flinders University, The University of Adelaide and University of South Australia - have been popular with international students for many years and continue to sit high in international listings.
More recently, the city’s status as an education hub has been further boosted by the arrival of some of the world’s best universities. In 2006, Carnegie Mellon University from the US opened it’s Adelaide campus and became Australia’s first foreign university. Two British universities – Cranfield University and University College London – have also recently opened, along with the Victorian-base d University of Ballarat.

Schools in Adelaide
Adelaide’s government and private schools have an outstanding reputation, and an excellent history of providing high quality educational opportunities. Students who complete their secondary education (age 17) receive the South Australian Certificate of Education (SACE) which is highly regarded around the world. Adelaide’s International Baccalaureate program is one of the best in the world.
Adelaide is a small city compared to other state capitals in Australia. But in many ways this makes it school-friendly: local communities are very involved with their schools, parents often give their time and support and they care about the success rates of all children, not just their own.
Adelaide schools know exactly what it takes to get their students into local universities and colleges. Thanks to a terrific Homestay program international students also get to enjoy a supportive home-from-home – a place where they can learn and live alongside their Australian ‘family’.

Vocational Education in Adelaide
South Australia has always been renowned for its food and wine, so it’s no surprise that two of the world’s most prestigious hotel management and culinary schools are based here.
The International College of Hotel Management (ICHM) is one of the top five hotel management colleges in the world; and Le Cordon Bleu (LCB) is the world’s largest provider of hospitality management and culinary courses.

Adelaide’s vocational education and training (VET) system comprises the government owned TAFE South Australia and a wide variety of private training organisations.
The system is focussed on professional and practical learning, with a heavy emphasis on uniting students with industry. As a VET student, you’ll earn qualifications in fields such as IT, primary industries, manufacturing, business and tourism/hospitality, to name just a few.
These qualifications are recognised all over the world; and thanks to Adelaide’s pathways, you can easily move across to university degree courses, with your VET qualification counting towards entry.

English courses in Adelaide
Adelaide is the perfect place to learn English (or get better at it!). The teachers are excellent (and fully accredited), and the institutions are all friendly, comfortable and professional.
Living in an English-speaking environment makes the job of learning so much easier, because you have to speak English! And because Adelaide is one of Australia’s most welcoming cities, you’ll find it really easy to interact with the locals – whether you’re in the shops, at a café or at the beach.
If you’re thinking about studying English in Australia, chances are you’ll come across the term ELICOS, which stands for English Language Intensive Courses for Overseas Students. These intensive courses are designed to help you learn – and quickly! Anyone can take them: whether it’s to improve your English before doing further studies at school, university or college; or simply wanting to improve your language skills while you’re on holiday in South Australia.
A number of Adelaide institutions offer ELICOS courses. The universities all have their own education centres, as does TAFE SA. Another option is to enrol with a small, privately-run college. You can even do ELICOS programs at secondary school.

CGMS Online Montessori Training & Montessori Teacher Training Certificates

Founded in 2006, The Center for Guided Montessori Studies (CGMS) offers very comprehensive online learning courses which incorporate cutting edge web-based and video technologies to provide quality online Montessori training at a distance. CGMS offers both teacher training certificate programs and continuing education for experienced Montessori teachers.

New! Starting March 22nd we are launching an Elementary Certificate training program. This new, 30 month program will provide the same high standard of blended distance and low-residential training as our Primary Certificate program. To request more information or to learn how to apply, please write us at admissions@guidedstudies.com.
We invite you to take a look at the course that has wowed so many people while reinvigorating Montessori training. Both students and administrators are raving about CGMS's quality and vision.
The course includes a full year practicum experience at an authentic Montessori school that meets CGMS standards for authenticity. We also provide our Montessori Online Training materials to training programs that wish to supplement face-to-face weekend seminars with a distance learning component.
Our Early Childhood Full Certificate program has become the first MACTE accredited Montessori teacher training course which primarily uses distance methods. Please understand that neither our Elementary, nor our professional development programs are MACTE accredited. All CGMS courses are recognized under the International Montessori Council (IMC) guidelines. The IMC guidelines mandate hours that exceed MACTE standards.
On this site you will find samples of our Montessori videos, our training curriculum information, an enrollment form for our Montessori teacher training, answers to common questions and much more. If you would like a brochure, please let us know, and also feel free to add yourself to our mailing list.

The Importance of Education in Personal Training

Personal training is a competitive industry. People from all walks of life are deciding to switch careers and become a fitness professional. To stay competitive it is important to have a diverse portfolio, or "toolbox". An example would be acquiring a certification from a well known organization, such as the American College of Sports Medicine. This can show potential clients that you have taken the extra step to gain experience, which can make them feel more confident in trusting you as their trainer. Another such tool to add into your toolbox would be education.
Education is just as important as being certified. One reason is training someone is more than just showing them how to lift a weight. To successfully help a client reach their goals, one must have sufficient knowledge in anatomy and kinesiology, exercise physiology, health risk stratification, biomechanics, nutrition, biology, and designing exercise programs. These topics are usually minimally covered in certification exam study materials, which is not enough. To have a full understanding of these topics can take months of studying and research.
Another reason for obtaining education is for the safety of your client. It is important to understand how the body functions and how exercise can affect it. Without a solid understanding of the above topics, one could teach a client an exercise that might actually hinder reaching their goals instead of helping them. An example could be if someone has recently had knee surgery, and a trainer recommends as part of their routine they run to lose weight (an extreme example). If the trainer had sufficient education, they probably would not have recommended running as they would know it can take weeks if not months for recovery. They instead would have recommended light exercises that would strengthen the surrounding joint muscles first, before getting into any type of cardio regimen.
Continuing your education is always important whether you are a seasoned trainer or just starting. New research and exercise methods are always coming to light, and obtaining education is a great way to stay on top of it all. Don't feel like you have the time to go to a local college or university for a class? Try typing into Google "Online Certificates in Fitness and Health". The next several pages will provide you with a wide variety of health and wellness courses to choose from, all of which are online.
Whether on-site or online, what's important is you are striving to further your education and knowledge. That is what set's a great trainer apart from everyone else.

Iridology Training

While we may be seeking an alternative health education, iridology training may be the unique option of choice. Schools for Iridology, as well as distance learning classes and online education programs teach individuals how to read and analyze the iris of the eye.
Iridology courses vary in length and cost, but often provide a curriculum that introduces the tools and techniques regarding the field. Training begins by teaching interested individuals how to work with an iris map for left and right irides. Students learn to identify and assess varying colors, marks and/or patterns in blue and brown eyes. Through comprehensive iridology training, future practitioners learn how to distinguish these patterns and associate them with conditions that correspond to relevant organ tissues.
For the more serious individual, advanced training in iridology will allow persons to not only practice it as a diagnostic tool, but will also teach students how to apply basic herbal remedies to help treat individual symptoms and conditions.
In addition to herbal essentials, some of the best iridology training may include kinesiology (muscle testing); emotional healing; pH testing as well as related professional seminars with focus on case histories; heart; digestive system, and colon/intestinal system (in relation to the iris).
Individual schools may provide necessary educational tools including a magnifying lens, penlight, self exam mirror, reading record forms, eye charts, anatomical map and other needed work and text books required for course completion.
In closing, students who have completed full course Iridology Training may opt to become certified through various natural healing associations.

Localizing Global Training Programs

The traditional approach to customer classroom based training is being challenged by the need of global companies to train both internal personnel and customers in a variety of countries, in multiple languages, all with different customs, mores and requirements relating to training needs, approaches and concepts. The problem of training a global audience is further compounded by the demand of corporations to demonstrate a profitable rate of return on their investment in training operations.
A more recent approach to resolving this problem (with the advent of internet) has been the adoption of technologies that allow skilled training developers to create customized training programs and then standardize the curriculum to multiple audiences around the world through effective language translation. Today's technology enables training experts to use methodologies, include Synchronous and Asynchronous training methods, the Systems Approach to Training methodology and platforms and portals such as Blackboard and Moodle to deliver effective and dynamic training programs. Using technology that enables the creation and delivery of training programs to a global audience creates the need for course curriculum and ancillary training documentation to be created in one language (usually English) and then translated into several different languages. Inexperienced trainers and developers as well as many companies that fail to realize the need to deliver such content to a global audience will fail in their attempt to effectively train customers, reducing revenues and customer allegiance.
I recently had a client (a manufacturing company) that was spending over one-hundred thousand dollars a year on translating curriculum and training manuals into twenty languages; on their less than effective and poorly designed training curriculum for their internal personnel and international customer facing training program. This client was using their internal engineers to conduct their training classes and poorly trained technical writers to develop their curriculum. The result was a training program that had no methodology, no objectives or focus, no understanding of training concepts or of their audience's needs---in essence, the program was a disaster. The end result was poorly trained internal personnel and less than happy customers. Additionally, this company was hemorrhaging money with their existing training program and incurring losses on their training offerings. This company's support and field service calls were up by eighty-percent for the focus group of customers who had gone through their training program, complaints from customers were also at an all time high and customer allegiance was diminishing at a steady rate.
When this manufacturing firm approached my company, me and one of my team traveled to their headquarters and performed an initial training needs assessment and reviewed their overall training program and operations in detail. We were amazed that a company that was producing such a high quality product was so unaware of how to effectively deliver training to both internal personnel and more importantly to their international customers. After reviewing their curriculum (they had no training plans or evaluation metrics) and interviewing their trainers (engineers who had no interest in performing training) and their technical writers, who also had no experience with curriculum development; we soon were prepared to make our recommendation to this company.
The challenge for this company went far beyond just not having skilled training personnel to develop and deliver their training; they also did not understand the requirements for training a global audience. One problem was that they were not localizing their Spanish language training for their various customers in Latin America, Mexico and Spain. The same was true for their Portuguese training modules for Brazil and Portugal. This company was using a 'one size fits all approach;' that obviously resulted in failure.
Additionally this company was using a translation service that was overcharging them and did not itself understand the audience or using a proper translation memory or nomenclature library called TRADOS.
Our Recommendations
The following are the recommendations we provided the company discussed in this piece, once we were awarded the contract to develop an effective global training program for them. We first developed a thorough training analysis and procedural training plan based on their objectives, customer expectations, budget, internal resources, number of languages their training should be translated into, and deliverable dates. This plan also included standardizing their entire training program and modules as well as incorporating their technical documentation into the training, since it was an integral part of the maintenance and installation portion of the training program.
E-Learning Implemented
In addition to developing entirely new curriculum for this client we also brought in two of our trainers in order to implement a train-the-trainer program that provided the dedicated trainers the client would be using going forward with the necessary skill set to be effective as classroom trainers. We implemented the Systems Approach to Training (SAT) methodology to accomplish this objective. We then implemented an E-Learning system both a Synchronous and Asynchronous program.
Synchronous learning takes place when two or more people are communicating in real time. Sitting in a classroom, talking on the telephone and chatting via instant messaging are examples of synchronous communication and training. So if you're sitting in a classroom in Johannesburg and the instructor facilitating the training class is in Boston where the instructor is speaking via teleconferencing, this is Synchronous learning; considered live. A training course conducted via WebEx or Live Meeting is also an example of Synchronous learning.
Asynchronous learning, on the other hand is more flexible. The teaching takes place at one time (and is preserved through streaming video WebEx, or other E-Learning application) for the learner to participate in the course modules whenever the time is most convenient for him or her. Technology related to training applications such as Captivate, Flash, e-courses, online forums, audio and video recordings make this possible. Even snail mail would be considered asynchronous, though the antiquated correspondence course conducted through mail is now a dinosaur compared to effective E-Learning programs.
Plan for Developing Global Course Offerings
We implemented the following four strategies for developing this company's multilingual course offerings; using a standardized approach for their internal audience and one for their customer audience.
1. We implemented the necessary tools and applications and infrastructure for the development of the initial training content along with an easy way for the client to revise and keep the curriculum current.
2. We developed the course curriculum and ancillary training and technical documentation in English and then using our own translation service translated the course material into each language required, specific to each particular country.
3. We implemented a Blackboard system for the distance learning program; we also used WebEx to record live classroom training to make it available to customers in other countries as recitation classes to be incorporated with the primary training modules.
4. We implemented a combination of classroom instruction, computer-based training, and E-Learning solutions to train globally dispersed employees, customers, and partners. We created initial training needs assessments for each audience, exams and post training evaluation assessments, in order to receive feedback in order to tweak the training, on an as needed basis.
Results Achieved Within Six Months
After the implementation of the new training program for our client; they began seeing positive results with their new global training program within the first two months, but there were significant results by the sixth month of the implementation. The new training program was eventually seamlessly implemented across twenty countries for internal employees, new hires and customer training. Within the first two months of launching the pilot program this company experienced a significant drop in support calls, from eighty percent before the new training program to sixty percent after the program was rolled out to eight of the markets where they were experiencing the worst problems. After the training program was launched in all of the twenty countries where they operated, within six months their incoming support calls were down to twenty percent. This was huge. Additionally, customers were extremely satisfied with the new training program, internal employee production increased and the cost of translation services was cut to less than half of what they were originally paying. The cost of their translation services was reduced even further once ITI established their TRADOS and the quality of the translated documentation also improved dramatically.
The evaluation tools we implemented for this client proved through the dashboard metrics we incorporated that the highest results were in the areas of skills development, cost containment, course completion, reduced support and field service calls and customer satisfaction. Our Training and E-Learning localization services reduce their overall training and documentation costs, speed time to market, and ensured the creation of consistent, high quality instructional content for their global training program. We have repeatedly produced the same successful results for our clients across multiple industries.

HVAC Training Online - The Pros and Cons of Online HVAC Education

Many educational institutions including trade schools, junior colleges, and even online universities provide six month to two-year training programs for HVAC certification. While there are thousands of traditional colleges and universities that provide this training, online courses seem to be gaining popularity.

Online HVAC training provides the student with the ability to study at his or her own pace, and allows them to choose which HVAC classes they are going to take at which time. Online courses typically cost much less than traditional colleges, universities and trade schools as well.

Other advantages of pursuing an online HVAC education include the different types of support that online learning programs offer. There are typically forums, blogs and other means of communicating with others who are taking the same courses as well as instructors.

While studying HVAC, students take courses related to equipment design, temperature control, equipment construction, electronics and the basics of installation, and repair and maintenance. These courses can all be studied at home, although there may be a period of on the job training required for many employers, just to ensure that the student understands the basics.

Regardless of if the school is brick and mortar or online, the student should ensure that the HVAC program in which they enroll is accredited. Accreditation for academic standards typically comes from one of three organizations: HVAC Excellence, The Partnership for Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Accreditation (PAHRA), and the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER). After completing the online, college, university or trade school studies, new technicians are generally required to receive six months to two years of field experience before they are considered proficient in the field.

There are, of course, disadvantages to studying online, although the advantages seem to outweigh the difficulties. One disadvantage for students who study HVAC online seems to be the high level of self-discipline required. In order to receive all the benefits of education, students must demonstrate the self-discipline to manage their own time in order to ensure they meet the course requirements. One of the main advantages for taking courses online is the ability to study at the student's own pace. This however, will pose a problem if the student is not disciplined enough to get the work done.

Having the ability to study at your leisure is one thing, but making sure that your studies are completed on time is crucial to retaining the information that you receive through your online courses. Many students choose the online study option simply because it is much less expensive than traditional education institutions. Others feel that the ability to study at their own pace and in the comfort of their own homes is the main attraction for online schools.

For those seeking online courses for HVAC, it is very important to practice self-discipline in order to finish the course work in a reasonable amount of time. It is also important to choose an online school that is accredited for HVAC. Once the HVAC program is complete, it should not be difficult to find an employer that will offer additional training through on-the-job experience.
