Designing for virtual classrooms is way more than shifting to Zoom. 

Live, online learning environments have their own specific strategies and tactics for design and delivery. 

In this session, we'll learn the principles that you need to know for success and the practical skills and tools to make it happen. You'll learn how we designed a multi-award-winning Accredited Course and an Intensive Online Program with a 92% completion rate!

Key topics covered in this webinar 

  • Entering the environment
  • Shifting your language
  • Engagement and interaction tactics
  • Creating safe psychological space
  • Integrating social learning
