Our approach to training plan and training course development is simple. You are the customer. We will design plans and courses that meet your needs.  All our training services are designed with the customer and their needs as the focal point. We are poised to assist you in development of training plans and courses specifically designed for your needs.  Whether it's conversion of existing materials or development of a brand new course, we will work with your experts to make sure we keep you current on the status of our efforts and provide numerous opportunities to review training strategies and materials as we develop them.

Training Plan Development

The best training programs are those that have detailed plans describing how knowledge and skills relate to specific job task task requirements. Starting from this basic guide, plans should include job tasks, knowledge or performance levels, sources of training, and other items necessary to make the plan a useful document for managers and employees at all levels in the organization. As we collaborate with personnel in your organization, we will develop a detailed plan tailored to meet specific training needs.

Our AOCE Team can develop training of all types -- from knowledge-based to performance-oriented.  We develop for both instructor-led to distributive learning deployment approaches -- and in all types of media, including paper-based, computer or web-based (CBI/CBT or WBT), and in modeling or simulation environments.  Our training plan and course development follow the logical steps of the ADDIE process. Using the principles of instructional system development (ISD), we analyze training needs, define educational items and levels, and develop training objectives and evaluation devices. Our next step is to plan the remainder of the instructional materials and conduct training with your people. Our actions don’t stop there.  

Our courseware and training aids can be designed to be Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) compliant and designed to meet Section 508, of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
