"An excellent, comprehensive, and very practical guide fortraining design.
--Beverly Popek, director of human resources, professional &consulting services, MCI Telecommunications

The answer is here. The heart of this book is theSequential-Iterative Model (SIM) for training design. A fancy termfor a simple, elegant concept: training should be a step-by-stepprocess with a feedback loop that enables you to continuallyrefine your training based on experience.
