Hello Friends,

Welcome to this edition of Wavelength.

After experiencing the vagaries of weather in January, the comparatively warm February is a delight. We are standing on the threshold of Spring. Beautiful, warm, and snuggly spring, which paints the Earth in a fresh, luscious green. Spring that makes us renew everything…our looks, our rooms, our lives, our work! Spring makes us move faster and it makes us think clearer. It makes us discard all that is useless and redundant so that we may have space for the useful and efficient!

The Mystery of the Month article for February 2008 is called, “The Snakes & Ladders of Training.” Snakes & Ladders…doesn’t it sound mysterious and fun? If it does, then it follows the principle of inquiry arousal, and if it manages to catch your attention; the principle really works! Well, this article discusses some Dos and Don’ts (Voila!) of effective training.

This month, we also introduce a small and dainty section called “The Cognitive Excursion” to our newsletter. This section shall be available at the Wavelength site and would interest those trainers and instructional designers who are in love with training, learning, and life. The humble beginnings of this section can be seen in the HIVE and the CLICK. If you are wondering what they are, I invite you to join Wavelength’s Cognitive Excursion.

The second session of the IDSP Online course shall end tomorrow and the third session will start on March 01, 2008. We welcome our new participants and hope that they too will find the experience enriching and enjoyable. We have opened registrations for the fourth session of the IDSP Online, which shall begin on July 01, 2008. In our attempt to streamline our existing and future courses, we have decided to offer all our courses, four times a year. Also read the views of the IDSP Online (first session) participants

If you have 4 or more years of experiences and If you are not designing trainings/developing storyboards yourself but you have to oversee a team that is engaged in design or development, or if you are someone who needs to know the nuances of instructional design for effective client interfacing; you are welcome to apply for the IDSP Online. Please visit the IDSP Online webpage for details.

The next session of the IDCWC Online is scheduled to start on April 01, 2008. Registrations for this session are currently open. Please find the details at the IDCWC Online webpage.
