We get it: Change can be hard. But when your small private online course (SPOC) isn’t cutting it anymore, it’s probably time to make some alterations. After all, not only is ineffective training a waste of time, but it can be a burden on financial resources as well. If your SPOC is guilty of the following five offenses, it’s probably time to embrace change, revamp your course material, and learn to love more effective training.
1. You’re Missing Course Objectives
Learners always want to know what’s in it for them. When you introduce a SPOC with murky objectives (or worse, no objectives at all) you lose a percentage of learners before they ever open a file or watch a presentation. By defining clear objectives–what they’ll learn and why they need to know it–learners perceive the SPOC as necessary information and immediately become more engaged with the course material.
