OISE/UT CERTIFICATE IN ADULT TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT OPTIONAL MODULE: THE FUNDAMENTALS OF E-LEARNING
In response to the rapid emergence of e-learning as an educational approach in the workplace, OISE at the University of Toronto, in partnership with eMisphere Solutions, Montreal, has developed a three day module on e-learning fundamentals. The emphasis of this course is on the principles, unique considerations and practical applications of e-learning. The course has a workplace focus, and a strong practical element, in addition to providing the theory needed to understand the key elements of e-learning.
We are currently accepting applications for our June 15-17, 2005 E-learning Module, to be held at OISE/UT, Room 5-175 at a cost of $750.00, including course materials. For detailed information regarding the module and/or to register please visit our website below.

This is supplemented by print materials that contain presentation slides and other relevant information, as well as workshop exercises for future reference.
