instructional design vs performance improvement model

instructional design vs performance improvement

Both models are focused on assessing the progress of the implemented solution. The purpose of both models focuses on delivering a solution in response to a need. Performance improvement techniques offer tools that measure the degree of change relevant to the work process. Performance improvement places more emphasis on outcomes relevant to ROI.

This is a good concept to focus on by instructional designers- because they must strike a balance between a pragmatism and creativity in progress toward a solution . Having a simple but relevant concept like "SMART" in your toolbox can help with striking this balance.
