Sally Parker, M.Ed.’s Education

North Carolina State University

M.Ed. , Training & Development , 1988 — 1991

The focus of training and development is to identify and, through planned learning activities, help to develop the key competencies which enable individuals to perform current or future jobs. The term "training and development" is commonly used by business and industry to describe the education and training which takes place under their auspices. This program track proposes to train specialists to work in a variety of roles within this field, and students may choose course work throughout the School of Education to make up their programs. Both the Training and Development program and the Instructional Design program fall under the Department of Adult and Community Colleges in the School of Education at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, NC.
