Run a Course

Deliver an approved ASG course while adapting to how participants actually learn.

This pathway begins when the course has been designed and is ready for delivery.

Your Pathway

1. Prepare → 2. Onboard → 3. Facilitate → 4. Practice → 5. Assess → 6. Adapt → 7. Improve

1. Prepare

Make sure faculty, materials, participants, technology, venue, schedule, and communications are ready.

Review the course as a learning journey rather than simply reviewing the slides.

You're done when: Faculty can focus on participants rather than logistics.

2. Onboard

Help participants understand what they are learning, why it matters, and how they will participate.

Establish expectations for discussion, practice, assignments, AI use, and application.

You're done when: Participants understand the learning journey.

3. Facilitate

Deliver learning experiences rather than simply presenting content.

Use appropriate combinations of:

• short inputs

• cases

• discussion

• simulations

• reflection

• demonstrations

• peer learning

• field experience

You're done when: Participants are actively making sense of the material.

4. Practice

Give participants opportunities to use what they are learning.

Connect concepts to real situations, decisions, projects, organizations, or communities.

You're done when: Participants have moved from knowing about something to attempting to use it.

5. Assess

Look for evidence of learning.

Use assignments, demonstrations, discussions, reflections, projects, or other appropriate methods.

Ask whether participants can actually do what the learning outcomes intended.

You're done when: There is credible evidence of what participants learned.

6. Adapt

Adjust the course during delivery.

Spend more time where participants struggle. Remove unnecessary material. Introduce examples that fit the cohort.

You're done when: The course responds to learners rather than mechanically following the original plan.

7. Improve

After the course, combine participant feedback, faculty observations, and evidence of learning.

Update the course materials and document lessons for the next delivery.

You're done when: The next version is better than the one just completed.
