Professional Development with the Institute for Performance and Learning - I4PL Learning Academy has you covered for upskilling and reskilling
Learning has a positive impact on key business measures such as job performance and productivity.
Effective workplace learning provides opportunities for individuals and organizations to improve and grow, has positive results on employee
performance and productivity, and is critical to a healthy Canadian economy.
The Institute for Performance and Learning supports various programs and provides opportunities for members and non-members to hone their performance and learning competencies, through online courses, classroom courses and bespoke courses for team workplace
development. Resources, such as the Competencies for Performance and Learning Professionals manual, are used by L&D employees across Canada and globally. Members can attend live monthly webinars and have access to view them again in the
Member webinar archives. Certification is the means our members can demonstrate and give evidence of their mastery of competency areas.
Master Certificate Courses
The Master Certificate suites of courses offer in-depth courses based on and aligned with the Performance and Learning Competencies and those who successfully complete the courses will earn their digital badge certificates to proudly share with their
networks and display on LinkedIn or a digital resume.
The Master Certificate in Performance and Learning Competencies (MCPLC) is the course for those seeking
to learn how to apply each of the seven Performance and Learning Competency areas through these four courses: Assessing Performance Needs + Evaluation; Designing Learning Experiences; Facilitating Learning; Partnering with Clients. Learners who are specializing in the area of facilitation may choose to also do the Advanced Facilitating Learning course. Some learners choose to close
knowledge gaps by taking one course only while others do all four courses to earn the MCPLC, which is recognized as equivalent to one year of work experience for the purpose of the I4PL Certification application.
The Master Certificate in Digital Learning (MCDL) is the option for those seeking to upskill and apply their learning design knowledge to the virtual arena to be able to design
effective online learning. Learners can take any of these course individually or do all four courses to earn the MCDL: Digital Learning Fundamentals - Mastering the Virtual Classroom - Game-Based Design - Story-based Design.
Each of these course modules takes place over three to four days, with live interactive sessions (registration limited to ensure participants have an opportunity to practice and engage in group work) combined with pre-work and assignments.
VIRTUAL FACILITATION EXCELLENCE WORKSHOPS
Virtual Facilitation Excellence and Advanced Virtual Facilitation Excellence are online, live facilitated workshops that gives facilitators practical strategies needed to make the leap from
a traditional room to a virtual one. With our partner, Shift Facilitation, I4PL is able to offer a live, interactive course where learners benefit from exercises and
real-time feedback in a series of four modules customized to the needs of the individual. Focused practice makes the complex tasks of a virtual delivery second nature and registration is limited to ten (10) participants per session.
After selling out in 2020 and January 2021, Virtual Facilitation Excellence was offered again February/March 2022.
