                      8
ADDIE Model
ADDIE Training Cycle
ADDIE is the standard model of the
training design process:
  1.   Analyze (the need)
  2.   Design (the objectives and strategy)
  3.   Develop (the training program itself)
  4.   Implement (the training design)
  5.   Evaluate (if the objectives were met)



                                               10
Project Life Cycle


The Project Life Cycle
includes the phases of
the project from the
beginning to the end

This can also be
thought of in ADDIE
terms
