I am planning to develop:

A professional development resource for educators or trainers

Adult Learning - learning theories, characteristics of adult learners, research on the brain and it's effect on adult education

Training Needs Analysis - what, why, how

Designing Learning - learning outcomes, strategies, The Learning Environment, process, Phases (Analysis, Plan, Design, develop), designing and developing learning resources

Delivery - The role of the trainer, Techniques, methods, tools and how to choose, session plans

E-learning - methods and tools, facilitating online

Assessment - what and why, methods, evidence, preparation, conduct, document, validate (a big one in Australia is Recognition of Prior Learning)

Evaluation of Learning and Assessment - Models, designing, techniques, reporting

Managing - Role of Manager, Auditing, Planning (Strategic, Operational), Marketing and promoting, organising, staffing, monitoring, Return on Investment, Scope of Training Services, Coordinating training, change management
