Graduate Certificate in Instructional Design (ID)

Instructional Design (ID) is the systematic process of creating learning experiences to achieve optimal training outcomes. Instructional Designers provide learning solutions to human performance problems in organizations. The certificate emphasizes design, and is underpinned by adult learning tenets, uses an integrated curriculum design, and employs a practical application approach to learning that is real-world and relevant. Certificate completers will exit with a portfolio of work samples that can be used to demonstrate their work.

The ID certificate is offered as a fixed curriculum. If a student misses a course in the sequence, he/she will need to wait a year or longer before the course is offered again.
