Purposeful Online Programming for the Post-COVID-19 Learner

Join Jessica Scott and Kristin Mulligan from PowerED™ by Athabasca University as they walk through key considerations for the online consumer experience.

The global pandemic accelerated the movement of skill-based training to digital formats. Many continuing education units were forced to move to emergency-based remote delivery, with a heavy emphasis on video-conferencing tools such as Zoom or Teams. There are, however, significant differences between moving place-based learning to an online environment and creating purposefully-built digital learning experiences that have been crafted for the online consumer.

Join Jessica Scott and Kristin Mulligan from PowerED™ by Athabasca University as they walk through key considerations for the online consumer experience, including 1) Creating a purpose-built digital infrastructure that meets the needs of online consumers; 2) Instructional design practices that are mindful of post-COVID-19 learner needs; and 3) Digital wellness and a holistic approach to learning. You’ll take away some helpful tools, tips, and ideas that you can begin implementing immediately within your own practice.
