When I did this presentation in April 1985 I had completed 10 CAD efforts as a consultant since November 1982 – and I had done 1 back at Motorola when I was an employee in the spring and summer of 1982 for Manufacturing Supervisors.

My current total is now 76 CAD efforts as a consultant – plus that 1 back at Motorola.

In 1982 I was conducting Performance and Enabling Knowledge/Skills Analysis and then Designing a Curriculum Architecture and T&D Paths – as many CAD efforts were targeted at multiple but related Job Titles where content could be shared “as is” or “after modification.”

By the late 1980s I had formalized the methods as I was training my consulting firm’s staff … and the staff of several of my clients in “How To” conduct CAD efforts by themselves.

I wanted/needed consistency between efforts and predictability of time burdens, cycle times and costs – as well as quality of output – which is measured via Performance Metrics back on the job post-T&D.
