Abstract:
Abstract Alexander the Great credited his father for his life but credited his teachers for learning how to live well. His point was: teachers influence how people think, feel, and perform. The quality of the teacher, therefore, influences how well people learn to live. The same point applies to instructors and facilitators. Those who design, lead, or facilitate training must be competent—or even exemplary—because they influence the employees who are trained. Instructors are role models for those they train. Instructors must be competent in the subject matter and/or competent in the theories and principles of learning itself. The learning and development department should not be the resting place for those looking to glide into a peaceful retirement or the last refuge of the incompetent employee. Chapter 8 addresses the question: Who should be involved in instruction? What competencies are essential for learning and development professionals to bear in order to analyze, design, develop, implement, and evaluate learning experiences? How do organizations document learning staff qualifications?
