A well-thought-out, holistic curriculum architecture is one of the key differentiators of forward-thinking, successful companies. Many organizations feel as if they have this type of architecture in place. But in reality, they have a mismatched “patchwork quilt” of training courses that have been added over time, often to meet immediate needs, with no real vision of how they fit into the overall training plan. The successful design or redesign of a holistic curriculum architecture calls for a step-by-step process that requires inclusion, vision, and focus to ensure ultimate success.
Root has partnered with many customers to design or redesign curriculum. We can provide value in every aspect of your curriculum strategy, from alignment and analysis to implementation and measurement. We can help you design and build your curriculum from the ground up, or reinvigorate and revolutionize your existing curriculum.
Few organizations have approached their training programs from this holistic perspective. Those who have partnered with Root and followed our approach have realized impactful, tangible business results.
Once the future state is clear, it’s time to design the curriculum architecture. There is no “cookie-cutter” approach, as design heavily depends on the organization. Some prefer courses to be structured by job role; others by function or department. Regardless, the future state vision should be the blueprint for the design. The outcome associated with this phase is an organized curriculum architecture – a baseline for the development phase. - David Serdynski, Root Learning
