Instructional Design Competencies: The Standards (2nd Edition)

In 1986, the International Board of Standards for Training, Performance and Instruction (IBSTPI) published the first edition of Instructional Design Competencies: The Standards. It was the culmination of work that began in 1978. In retrospect, that work occurred in the infancy (or at least the toddler years) of the practice of instructional design (ID). In this volume IBSTPI presents its latest view of the competencies of instructional designers. It is a greatly expanded view that reflects the complexities of current practice and technology, theoretical advancements, and the social tenor of the times. Nonetheless, it is a view that is still rooted in the traditional notion of instructional design competence.
