Design Competency Based Learning and Development Materials

We Design Competency Based Learning and Development Materials. We remove all of the potential distractions and irrelevant content to enable learners to develop and practice the specific competencies required in the context of their role. We want learning to be efficient, effective, and immediately transferable.
Design Competency Based Training and Development Materials,

Because  our learning designs are competency based our learning materials are current, contextualized, related to your sector.

We ensure our learning is activity based, to engage learners, enable practice and collaboration and to embed the competencies that make an essential contribution to your business.

We work closely with you to identify core competencies and the most efficient and effective delivery methods to engage all of your learners.

Technical Manuals

Acquiring technical knowledge can result in overload. Our approach to design is to appeal to the different types of memory to encourage retrieval, recall and recognition

Blended Learning

Learning today is broad in scope, and goes well beyond formal courses to include a variety of methods to engage learners, from webinars to videos, as well as social and collaborative learning delivered via a range of Apps, all provide opportunities for accelerated on-job learning.

Design Competency based Learning and Development Materials

Most of our customers use our competency based design skills to enable development of specific competencies and to develop future capabilities to enable individuals to contribute when business environments change,

Content Curation

The Problem: Your learners are passively drowning in information

Your LMS is stuffed with content but learners use Google to access the information they need but is it the right information?. Too much content overloads working memory, little is retained. The content is not contextualized  for the learner and there’s very little interaction in terms of opportunity for problem solving, critical thinking and decision making between the information and the learner.

The Solution - Micro Learning

Spectrain design and source Micro Content. We are content curators. Micro content is specific to the needs of a job holder, presented in a manner that enables the learner to interact and apply at the point of need and in the context of their role. Knowing what you’ll be expected to do with new information is crucial to being able to retain it.

Essential Use of Micro Learning

Organisations use Spectrain’s micro content curation service when they need people to master compliance issues quickly. Micro Content provides digestible, relevant,interactive learning resources that people can apply right away. It also ensures that the information they access is current and meets their compliance needs.

“Joy, My colleague Michael just told me that he had a training with you this week and was so happy about the way you did the training. I told him that was exactly the same for me (and my others colleagues), we were so lucky to have a teacher like you, the training was so lively! Thank You.”

“I have used Spectrain’s design service on a number of occasions and have consistently been presented with a product with an outstanding quality of finish.:”I am guilty of information overload, so, I find Joy’s ability to clarify needs and outcomes, enables me to focus on key messages and work alongside her to develop a storyboard from an audience focused perspective.

Joy’s designs include film media, animation, sound, images and fonts, all carefully selected to enhance the message, she can always justify her use of imagery, etc to support the message… everything has to have a reason. The outcome for me is the certainty of a perfect and polished presentation of my ideas”.
