Hi,
Instructional design is a very good topic. I do have an idea about it because I have taken that as my project topic. If you could provide me with guidance on how to apply it to training, it would be of great use to me.

Thank you for the query. Here is a good source on ID models to read and digest:

Hi Manasi,
It's good to hear that you want to pursue a PG in instructional designing (ID). Well, my advice to you would be to research before you take the plunge. I say this because I was in the same quandary a few months back. If you really want to be a full-time ID, the course will be helpful. A good place to start your research would be a series of blog posts by Christy Tucker. She has been an ID for a long time.
Instructional Design Careers – Experiencing E-Learning
Another good read about whether you need a degree for an ID job is this one by Cammy Bean:
Learning Visions: Instructional Designers: Do You Have a Degree in ID?
I have been in the field for 9 years, and all the people I have worked with acquired their skills on the job.
Well, here I stop my rant. Hopefully, this helps you make your decision. And ohh, I decided not to do the PG but to do self-study. I have been quite successful at learning the theory. The practical aspects I know from my job, having done it for 9 years. Also, if you really want to attend a course, I suggest a short-term course from selected institutes. There are only a handful in India.

Dear Prabha,
An excellent posting giving proper references to the sites. Many on this forum do not do that. Even I have missed out saying who had posted the links I have given.
