I work at a large financial firm and am currently interning in their ID area. What's neat is the wealth of resources both internal and external they provide to IDs on their intranet. While they do have proprietary resources, the fact that an internal web page was created to help you as the designer succeed!
Below are a few of the Internet resources they provided which I thought were cool! I hope you find them helpful.

Scenario Based eLearning:

So this is only a couple of resources. In addition, we attend regular training sessions (WBT and Instructor Led) about designing courses. I hope you all find the information I shared useful. Talk to everyone in class!
