AXIOM Insights Podcast

The award-winning AXIOM Insights Learning & Development Podcast series highlights conversations with experts about supporting and creating organizational performance through learning.

Virtual Training Certification and Skills Development

Most often, online classes succeed or fail based on the person leading the class, according to Kevin Siegel.

After migrating his own course content to vILT delivery, Kevin developed a train-the-trainer program to teach how to train online, which led to the creation of the Certified Online Training Professional (COTP) program. The COTP program covers synchronous and asynchronous eLearning fundamentals, establishing instructor credibility, supporting learners in the virtual environment, and requires learners to demonstrate specific practical skills in online facilitation.

In this episode, we discuss what makes a great (and effective) online learning experience. Kevin Siegel speaks from his expertise as a Certified Technical Trainer, a Certified Master Trainer, and a Certified Online Training Professional, and his decades of experience as a technical communicator, a face-to-face and virtual trainer, e-learning developer, publisher, and keynote speaker.
