Too many eLearning courses are packed with slides, information, and explanations—but still fail to change behavior. Why? Because content alone doesn’t create learning.

In “Stop Dumping Content. Start Designing Learning.”, we challenge the common habit of turning SME material into slide-based courses and instead show you how to design learning experiences that actually drive performance.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

• Differentiate between content delivery and learning design
• Shift from “covering content” to designing for performance
• Identify and eliminate unnecessary content
• Transform static content into engaging learning experiences
• Design courses that encourage practice, not passive consumption
• Adopt a learner-centered mindset for modern instructional design
