This accredited certificate program is unique in that it allows participants to propose and develop their own practical pedagogical projects. Another distinguishing characteristic is that it is offered in blended learning mode, i.e., alternating face-to-face phases with tutored distance learning phases. The pedagogical team includes one professor and one coordinator who supervise the entire program, as well as external instructors who provide individually tailored consulting on participants’ projects. During their studies, participants experience first-hand, the techno-pedagogical solutions proposed through their implementation within the program.  \nKeywords: blended learning, hybrid learning, e-learning, continuing education, life-long learning, project-based pedagogy, immersive learning, Europe  \nGeneral Context  \nProgram stakeholders  \nArthur: professor in a European university. Arthur initiated the creation of a certificate of advanced studies in the design and development of online learning and is responsible for the  \nacademic and instructional design aspects and tasks that he shares with Madeleine. He also teaches specific courses within the program.  \nMadeleine: scientific collaborator. Madeleine works closely with Arthur as an instructional designer and coordinator for the program. As well as teaching assigned courses, she administers the learning management systems used within the program (Moodle, Mahara), devoting 40% of her time to the certificate.  \nExternal instructors: experts in the domains of competence that are integral to the proposed curriculum but outside of the expertise of the organising team.  \nProject tutors: most instructors within the certificate program also take on the role of project tutors. When necessary, additional collaborators are hired solely as project tutors.  \nWith such a small team, each stakeholder is called upon to assume multiple roles and functions: the strict division of labour seen in large-scale educational institutions is not practical in the current case and context.  \nThe certificate program in question is a blended learning program that alternates between face-to-face and distance learning phases. The program is aimed at postsecondary or university level educators, as well as professional educators and trainers in the private, nongovernmental or public sectors who need to implement instructional or educational programs within their institution or business.  \nAfter several years of running the program, Arthur and Madeleine wish to share their experience, as well as to take stock of the ground they’ve covered so far, and to highlight some of the innovative aspects of their certificate program. They decide to organize a meeting with colleagues and instructional designers interested in their experiences, so as to describe  \nthe different steps that led to the development of their particular program and their view of its current state. This meeting took place early February in a classroom on campus.  \nStart of the project  \nArthur recalls that when the certificate was first designed, his research and teaching unit offered several continuing education courses in the field of educational technology.“At that time, I wanted to group the various courses into a structured whole; a program that would lead to accreditation and certification,” he explains. The creation and organisation of continuing education programs is part of a professor’s mandate and Arthur has had more than 30 years’ experien","cbCaiuEBeGfodPr6","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuEBeGfodPr6","pdf",684087,22,"English","# Abstract\n# General Context\n## Program stakeholders\n# Start of the project","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the certificate program?\",\"answer\":\"It provides an accredited continuing education certificate for post-secondary educators and training professionals, focused on designing and developing practical pedagogical projects.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the program deliver blended learning?\",\"answer\":\"It alternates face-to-face phases with tutored distance learning phases.\"},{\"question\":\"Who are the key stakeholders involved?\",\"answer\":\"The program includes a professor, a scientific collaborator/coordinator, external instructors, and project tutors, with roles often combined due to the small team.\"}]","Guiding Professional Life-long Learning Projects - the Case of an Immersive Blended Learning Certificate | PDF",1792085643,55]
