Learnnovators, a leading e-learning company, has Cathy Moore, International e-Learning Thought Leader and Blogger, as the guest in their latest edition of “Crystal Balling with Learnnovators” – a thought-provoking interview series that attempts to gaze into the future of learning.
In this exclusive interview with Learnnovators, Cathy shares her experiences and insights on saving the corporate world from ‘boring training’. She explains why it is important for instructional designers to stop being mere ‘order takers’, and offers her recommendations for transforming into the role of ‘performance consultants’. Her advice to instructional designers who want to stop producing often pointless courses is invaluable. “I’ve helped a lot of new instructional designers, and the main knowledge gap I see is a lack of understanding of how a business works and what its leaders care about.” was Cathy’s reflection on the skills that present day instructional designers possess while designing learning experiences. Cathy’s foresights on the future of learning are truly thought provoking.
According to Ravi Pratap Singh, Co-founder of Learnnovators, “We are greatly honoured to have Cathy Moore as our guest in our interview series today. This interview will help the learning community benefit from the valuable insights that Cathy shares about ‘learning’ and ‘instructional design’.”
