Program Design and Development

Each program is custom designed, using best-practice tools and techniques. Our Instructional Designers have years of experience in both for-profit and non-profit sectors and in a variety of industries.

Programs are developed in a variety of mediums, from instructor-led to computer-based training, and with a blended learning approach. Partnering with your organization, EPD uses company-specific case studies, simulation scenarios and environmental scanning. And as your strategic goals are attained, our program can evolve to accommodate new priorities.

Program Implementation and Support

EPD can present your learning initiative at your workplace, on the Wayne State University campus, or at a third-party location. Our programs may be stand-alone or embedded in another program such as an annual meeting or retreat. Our facilitators are Wayne State University full-time and adjunct faculty and professors with real-world experience and extensive expertise in executive & professional development. Your assigned Program Coordinator is always available on-site during the process to assist.
