Training Development and Implementation

Through detailed discussions with its partners from the outset, Neverland Scientific gains an understanding of the skills, knowledge and behaviors inherent in a program as the crucial first step in reaching its goals. The training that we develops is participant-centered, employs multiple modalities and media formats for the greatest possible impact. The training is accompanied by a process of continuous evaluation.

Instructional Design

Our trainers draw on sound adult education practices to prepare participants to actually use new skills learned once they return to the workplace. Among the fundamental elements of our approach to instructional design are: the application of learning theory that is specific to adults and contains measurable objectives; the conduct of diligent subject-matter research; and task analysis, along with quantitative, qualitative and expert evaluation.

To that end, the company works closely with organizations to identify their strengths, assess needs, and develop cost-effective strategies to enhance organizational infrastructure and staff skills and expertise.
