Welcome to Beetroot 2.0

Discover and apply Learning 2.0 with a qualification in the Diploma of Training and Assessment.

Beetroot 2.0 is a project-based learning course. It contextualises the units of competency packaged towards the Diploma of Training and Assessment. You will develop, plan and implement a strategy using social e-learning technology for organisational and individual learning. The course will equip you with advanced management, leadership, facilitation and technology skills required for successfully reshaping a strategy to organisational and individual learning.

This customised approach to the Diploma of Training and Assessment builds upon The Australian Flexible Learning Framework’s research into the process of embedding innovative learning practices. Beetroot 2.0 is a flexible learning model you can duplicate or modify to apply these processes on the ground in your life or organisation.

Course overview

‘Beetroot 2.0 starts with getting approval from the Project Sponsor to initiate your project. Remember your business unit, human resources, compete with marketing, customer service, research and development, and information technology for resources.’

In any organisation reshaping the strategy for organisational and individual learning will require skills, tools and processes. From identifying needs and objectives of the ‘project’ through to completion, the project life cycle applies to any business endeavour to produce a set of deliverables within clearly specified time, cost and quality constraints.

The Beetroot 2.0 learning model posits that learning projects (initiatives) are no different from standard business operational activities as they:

•    Are unique in nature

•    Have a defined timescale

•    Have an approved budget

•    Involve risk

•    Achieve beneficial change

Just as a project is a strategy to achieve an objective, Beetroot 2.0 maps the project lifecycle to embed social e-learning and innovative learning practices to an organisation. Your trainer will guide you to manage costs, time, quality, change and risk.
