Program Design/Redesign and Development


Designing a quality program or curriculum can be time-consuming and challenging. It requires an understanding of why a new program (or modality) is needed, the demands of the 21st century workforce, accreditation requirements, and the preferences of the modern learner. To meet these challenges, the Office of Instructional Design supports university and academic departments in both the initiation and re-design of curricular programs. From ideation to delivery, our team works in strategic partnership with colleges, departments, and numerous other academic and administrative support units to collaboratively develop a program or curriculum that focuses on alignment, engagement, and the needs of your students.

•    Curricular Ideation and Brainstorming (1-2 Months)
•    Research and Data Gathering (1-3 Months)
•    Program Strategy and Development (2-4 Months)
•    Course and Assessment Design (3-5 Months)
•    Program Design Evaluation and Revision (Generally 1 Year Post Launch)
