Are you like most organizations? You have a limited training and development budget and your leaders have limited time during the workday for traditional classroom training. More organizations are seeing the benefits of web-based and virtual classroom learning—improved efficiency, greater flexibility, and even increased engagement—and are using a “blended” approach to develop critical leadership skills.

 

Over the past decade, online has become more widely used and accepted as a cost-effective alternative to traditional classroom training, particularly when it’s part of a blended learning solution. Choosing the right mix of web-based and face-to-face development options can greatly improve the uptake of your training initiatives, allowing you to provide more development opportunities that really pay-off for your leaders and for your organization.

 

DDI's The Magic is in the Mix^® approach to blended learning has been helping organizations implement effective development initiatives for more than 15 years. Our web-based and virtual solutions are designed to assess development needs, build skills and knowledge, and provide ongoing support to drive on-the-job application and ongoing development. Our web-based training courses end with some sort of knowledge check or competency gate, and are augmented with Practice Labs--interactive sessions that can be delivered virtually or face-to-face—where learners can practice using their newly acquired skills. Our virtual classroom courses allow for the same skill practice time as our traditional classroom courses through the use of breakout room technology (when using our WebEx Training Center web-conferencing platform). All modalities of our leadership development courses end with a focus on application, competency development, and management involvement and support.

Our solutions include:

These tools work hand-in-hand, to create and sustain a common language of leadership within your organization.

 

We are committed to providing you with innovative technologies to meet your growing business needs. We believe that when it comes to developing critical leadership skills, the magic is truly in the mix!
