Abstract

In this study, it is aimed at finding out major competencies employers look for in instructional design and technology professionals. With this purpose, the competencies focused on the job announcements for instructional designers and technologists are assumed to be an indicator of the competencies which they are expected to have in corporate and academic settings. Therefore, three web sites including job announcements were selected. The job announcements were analyzed by using content analysis method. In this way, similarities and differences between academic and corporate settings were revealed in terms of demanded competencies for instructional technologists and designers.
