Case Study: Trinity Church Wall Street advances leadership development with Design for People Inc.'s online blended learning courses

Trinity Church Wall Street launches 7 leadership courses with Design for People Inc.

Design for People Inc. was engaged by Trinity Church Wall Street to support its new Trinity Leadership Fellows Program. The church's challenge was to launch its first large-scale blended learning program, which combined in-person seminars, instructor-led workshops, and online courses. The key difficulty was ensuring this multi-faceted experience felt coherent and seamless for learners, allowing them to focus entirely on their leadership development, peer collaboration, and mentoring without being distracted by a disjointed program structure.

The solution implemented by Design for People was to design and produce a series of online courses for the Trinity partner learning platform, Junction Education. They worked closely with program leaders to understand the vision and ensure brand consistency across the courseware. The team adapted to the diverse styles of numerous expert instructors to create courses that highlighted each one's unique personality and voice, incorporating videos, activities, case studies, and discussions. Through this work, Design for People helped Trinity Church Wall Street successfully launch a comprehensive and immersive leadership development program that met its goal of providing a faith-inspired and values-driven educational experience.
