This article has discussed the concept of instructional design and the initial processes involved in creating high-quality, comprehensive training sessions that meet the needs of the EMS organization and its employees. Conducting a training needs assessment, as well as a training needs analysis, provides essential information about the types of training necessary to enhance overall performance. Additionally, knowing the audience and location for the training will afford insight into limitations on the program. This essential information leads to the creation of behavioral or performance objectives as the developing curriculum progresses.
