LEARNING PATHWAYS

IAL offers three pathways to meet your learning needs:

ASSESSMENT ONLY PATHWAY (AOP) is a self-study route that allows you to complete the course materials in your own time before taking a competency assessment at the Institute for Adult Learning (IAL). Participants attempting this pathway are familiar with competency based training and the national WSQ framework, and are experienced trainers and/or developers. Participants who wish to take AOP are required to attend a 1.5 hour briefing at IAL to better understand the requirements on this pathway. Click here for the briefing dates.

FACILITATED LEARNING PATHWAY (FLP) allows you to attend regular training sessions at IAL and enjoy the guidance of full-time IAL educators. Click here to access the course schedule.

PRACTICUM PATHWAY (PP) comes with the option of 6 hours of mentoring time with an expert. They will guide you through a practical application of your module's content allowing you to put theory into practice. Depending on the unit, this involves either training delivery, curriculum development, assessment development or an assessment delivery practicum.
