What is blended learning?

Blended programs offer a ‘Flipped Learning’ approach, whereby participants are provided with a series of online learning modules (equivalent to approximately one day of learning) prior to their two-day face-to-face workshops. The face-to-face component is where you’ll gain collaboration with others and learn to apply your learnings.

What are the benefits of blended learning?

  • Participants gain a fundamental understanding of the topic, preparing them more fully for their face-to-face session(s)
  • Participants have significantly more flexibility in regard to the way they learn
  • Participants can ‘self-pace’ the online element of their learning
  • Participants can access modules to repeat or refresh learning (before and after their face-to-face workshops)
  • Participants’ progress can be monitored and, where required, support can be provided
  • Participant responses and activity during the online portion of the workshop informs our facilitators on the specific needs of workshops participants so that the face-to-face component can be crafted to ensure they address specific capability development needs.
