The Learning and Performance Technology Graduate Program (LAPT) at UMBC is specifically designed to help Instructional Designers learn and grow. The program is portfolio-based. This feature allows students to build a tangible working portfolio that becomes their intellectual property. From the very first course, the LAPT student engages with the field of ISD by designing their first design plan, the critical component to the ADDIE model of the ISD field. From that first course, students learn to analyze, design, develop, implement and evaluate training courses, performance gap solutions, as well as classroom instruction.
