Fellow Traveler,

Learning program design is my passion. I created the  White Hat Experience to function as a learning program experience to help people find their white hat.

The Reasons for Being

The White Hat Experience

 

The white hat mindset was conceived with the development of the Western film genre starting in the 1920s to symbolize the contrast in good versus evil.

 

Today, the white hat represents people and organizations who strive to make the world a better place by doing the right things at the right times.

Often, learning requirements that are standardized across functions do not meet the needs of all learners without a tailored component that addresses the what-in-it-for-me (WIIFM) needs for each person. Many program-level training needs à la carte courses to fill in the gaps of individual learners.
