Experience Adaptive Design Online Learning Course
Experience Adaptive Design (EAD) is an interactive online training course that incorporates video & book learning with real-world group discussions. The course is appropriate for any healthcare environment. The objective: rapidly develop everyone in your organization to deliver Ideal Patient Care and continually lower costs.
Here is the EAD Online Course FAQ with details of the course. You can view the EAD website homepage (this is a password protected site).
“As an organization we participated in the beta-testing for Experience Adaptive Design in that fall of 2012. Our experience was positive. I see it being very beneficial to our staff who are very busy in their daily work, and the EAD product allows us to complete the learning on our time…they (learners) are able to work at their own pace and they are able to bring that back to their practical workplace at the frontline.”
