What is the aim of involving instructors in the objectives-setting process?

Involving instructors in the objectives-setting process primarily ensures alignment with departmental goals. This collaborative approach allows instructors, who are often on the front lines of education and training, to provide valuable insights into the objectives that are realistic and relevant to the needs of both the students and the organization. By engaging instructors in this process, departments can enhance the effectiveness of training programs, as the objectives are more likely to reflect the realities of the classroom and the challenges that trainees face in the field. Furthermore, when instructors contribute to setting these objectives, they are more likely to take ownership of the educational process and implement the goals effectively in their teaching.

This participation also fosters a sense of teamwork and unity towards common goals, which can greatly improve the overall training outcomes. It creates an environment where instructors feel their expertise and input are valued, which can motivate them to perform at their best.
