IT Training
Training is essential to the achievements of a business. Perhaps its most positive benefit is better employees.

It is training to keep current with changing technology and practices in a profession or in the concept of lifelong learning.

Instructional Technology
Instructional Technology is the theory and practice of design, development, utilization, management, and evaluation of processes and resources for learning. There are two types of instructional technology: those with a systems approach, and those focusing on audio-visual technologies
Example: Use of Learning Management like WebCT, Webboard or Blackboard
Instructional Design
Instructional design is the practice of arranging media to help learners and teachers transfer knowledge most effectively. The process consists broadly of determining the current state of learner understanding, defining the end goal of instruction, and creating some media-based “intervention” to assist in the transition. Ideally the process is informed by pedagogically tested theories of learning and may take place in student-only, teacher-led or community-based settings. The outcome of this instruction may be directly observable and scientifically measured or completely hidden and assumed.
The most common model used for creating instructional materials is the ADDIE Model. This acronym stands for the 5 phases contained in the model:
Analyze
Design
Develop
Implement
Evaluate
Example: Design and develop training materials or revision of course curriculums.
