Assignment Choice #2: Training and Development in the Organization

Based on what you learned through the assigned readings and course content, you will create a model (in a PowerPoint slide) that visually depicts training and development in terms of how training and development should be integrated within an organization.  A “model” is an illustration of your theory of training and development—based on your thoughts, experiences, perspective, and opinion.

For an example of a training and development model, check out the Learning Transfer model created by Ford and Weissbein, which is part of your assigned reading for this module.

Please arrange your model in a PowerPoint slide or slides. Refer to the Module 1 Critical Thinking assignment for best practices in PowerPoint design. Support your design with citations from 2-3 credible sources documented according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements.

. In general, the amount of content in this module can be summarized with 15 slides. Please support your observations and opinions with citations from 2-3 credible sources documented according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements.

PowerPoint Slides should follow some basic formatting guidelines:

1. Bulleted text should use the 7 X 5 rule: No more than 7 words per bullet, and no more than 5 bullets per slide.  This ensures the text can be seen from a distance (and keeps presenters from simply reading their slides.)
2. Whenever possible, include an applicable illustration along with text.  An example is utilizing a table that illustrates employment statistics or trends.
3. Use color intentionally: Simple is better.  The purpose is to summarize key points.  Don’t focus too much on bells and whistles, a lot of color, and animation.  While it’s fun to design with these tools, in the end, it takes away from your presentation.  Your audience will get lost in the “dazzle” and miss the content.

** Include a reference slide, and make sure all sources are cited within the module.
