“You Can’t Just Throw Technology At A Training Problem – You Have to Have Curriculum, You Have to Have Instructional Design”

November 10, 2017 by thebengali

31 October 2017, EATS2017, Estrel Convention Centre, Berlin: He is the ‘Editor in Chief’ of Halldale Media’s iconic aviation industry magazines – Civil Aviation Training (CAT Magazine) and Military & Simulation Training (MS&T).
