Week 7 - Converting to a Distance Learning Format

A trainer wants to take his program from a traditional face-to-face training to a distance learning, virtual format. And we ask just how do you do this without taking away from the main purpose and focus of the course.  Ultimately it comes down to one thing: distance learning courses can be a challenge for both the instructor and the students, but one thing holds true - well designed courses provide students with engaging experiences, and it does not matter if the delivery is in a traditional setting or distance learning setting.  The student can only do as well as the program has been designed for them to do.  I have composed a slideshow of best practices that I think could be helpful if planning and designing training for distance learning.
