Course overview
Flipped learning addresses a persistent design problem: classroom time is often consumed by presentations that learners could complete independently, while difficult decisions, practice and feedback receive too little attention. A well-designed flipped programme moves initial knowledge acquisition into structured pre-work and reserves facilitated sessions for application, coaching, peer review and problem-solving. It requires more than recording videos or uploading reading materials; it requires purposeful sequencing, clear accountability and accessible learning assets.
This course equips learning and development professionals to design instructor-led programmes using a flipped learning model. Participants use Backward Design, Bloom’s taxonomy, cognitive load principles, retrieval practice and Universal Design for Learning Guidelines to create coherent learning journeys. They learn to identify content appropriate for pre-work, design meaningful classroom application, select suitable digital assets, establish learner preparation requirements and assess whether the model improves workplace performance.
Teaching combines concise faculty briefings, analysis of corporate, public-sector and NGO learning cases, design critiques, group exercises and facilitated simulations. Participants work through the design decisions involved in converting a conventional course into a flipped programme, including stakeholder expectations, LMS configuration, facilitator guidance and evaluation measures. Each participant leaves with a documented flipped learning design blueprint for a selected workplace programme, supported by a pre-work specification, classroom activity sequence, assessment plan and implementation checklist.
The course suits professionals responsible for internal academies, management development, compliance learning, technical training and large-scale capability programmes. It is particularly useful where organisations need to improve classroom participation, reduce presentation-heavy delivery, make better use of subject-matter experts or create consistent learning experiences across locations.
