eLearning professionals can find useful resources on this page to develop appropriate training for adult learners. Appropriate training delivered in different modalities (e.g., instructor-led training, virtual learning, web-based, or hybrid) involves the application of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) guidelines and multimedia learning principles through an iterative instructional design process. A sound instructional design process includes a learner-centered approach grounded on learning objectives, which in turn should be aligned with appropriate assessment techniques.
