Teams of graduate students in human performance technology (HPT) and instructional systems technology (IST) will compete in ISPI’s inaugural Case Study Competition at THE Performance Improvement Conference in Orlando. The competition will provide a connection between ISPI and future HPT practitioners as well as offer valuable real-world experience for students studying HPT and IST. The competition will launch in January 2009 and continue until the conference begins April 19, where the top three teams will showcase their presentations.
Competition Format
Each team will consist of up to four graduate students currently enrolled in an HPT or IST program. Participants will access a dynamic web portal containing an authentic business case, a list of deliverables, and templates for their submissions.
A panel of expert judges will review the submissions from each team using evaluation criteria that includes the ISPI 10 Standards of Performance Technology. In addition to their written submissions, each team will present a proposal and answer questions from the judging panel at the 2009 conference during a concurrent session. The panel of judges will select the best case submission and the winning team will be announced during the closing session.
