At the heart of our approach to blended learning is eCoach, our online learner’s portal. Here’s how it works.
Skills are Introduced – Before the workshop:
About three weeks before their workshop, participants set up their personal, secure eCoach account.
- They complete an online needs assessment. The assessment helps us understand their needs and goals. It also gets them thinking about their upcoming training.
- Participants also complete an online course that (1) introduces them to the basics of effective organization and (2) helps them prepare the presentation, meeting or training session they will be practicing in class.
- When pre-work is complete, participants upload it to Turpin so their instructors can review and prepare feedback that will be delivered in the live workshop.
Skills are Developed – During the live workshop:
- Participants refine and practice their real-life presentation, meeting or training session
- They explore and develop skills during video-recorded exercises
- They receive individual coaching during private video review sessions
Skills are Reinforced – After the workshop:
Participants continue to have access to eCoach.
- They have access to all pre-work and course materials
- They can review their in-class videos with integrated instructor feedback
- They can review their personal follow-up letter
- Watch a new refresher video every month
- And much more
What do you mean you “develop” skills?
