First published in 1976, and revised by practitioners ever since, the Competencies describe what competent performance actually looks like in workplace learning. Employers use them to write roles and assess teams. Colleges and universities use them to build recognised programs. I4PL uses them as the standard behind certification.
Les Compétences pour les professionnels de la performance et de l'apprentissage constituent l'ensemble des connaissances et compétences pour le ou la professionnel(le) de l'apprentissage et du développement, ainsi que le programme de certification de l'Institut. Une copie numérique est offerte gratuitement aux membres. Notre reconnaissance va à Urbon Translations, commanditaire officiel de la traduction des Compétences.
The CTDP designation covers all seven. Each area below lists what it contains; the full edition adds the underlying skills, typical outputs and assessment criteria.
Sits at the centre of the other six, because every piece of this work is client focused whether you are internal or external.
A request for training is not a diagnosis. Assessment separates the ask from the actual gap, and often ends in a solution that is not a course.
The design of frameworks for sets of related learning experiences that build competence for many groups of learners, over months or years.
Turning a performance outcome into objectives, practice and materials, with content focused on need to know rather than nice to know.
From a handful of people around a machine to a webinar with thousands. Effective facilitation creates a learner-centred environment where learners share responsibility for the outcome.
Designing and promoting the activities that help learners actually apply what they learned once they are back at work. Planned during assessment and design, not bolted on afterwards.
Reaction, learning, performance and business results. When you plan you start at level four and work down; when you evaluate you start at level one and work up.
Partnering with clients is shown first because the framework treats it as central to the other six.
