Abstract: | This report delves into the challenges faced by BTG Bioliquids (BTL) in enhancing their new operators' training program. It aims to provide educational design recommendations by addressing gaps in the current training and aligning them with BTL's strategic goals and operators' learning needs. Utilising McKenney and Reeves' (2018) generic model for conducting design research in education, the project conducts a comprehensive review, design, and pilot implementation of design recommendations for new operators’ training programme. Analysis involves gathering insights from stakeholders, examining training structure and operations, and identifying design boundaries. Key areas for improvement include activating prior knowledge, refining training content curation, establishing support systems, and maximizing online and technology-supported learning. Design follows Van Merriënboer and Kirschner's (2017) four-component instructional design (4C/ID) model, proposing a comprehensive training framework, trainer guidelines, and online learning integration. Evaluation of pilot implementation shows promising results, with stakeholders favouring the proposed design, though further iterations and complete module development are needed for full effectiveness assessment. Overall, this research highlights the importance of applying sound instructional design principles to effectively address real-world training challenges |
