Understanding the natural process of how adults learn is critical to delivering training that's interesting, relevant-and most important-gets tangible results. In Turning Training Into Learningy the authors share their originál, time-tested method for how to help trainees internalize a skill so that it sticks. In detail, Sheila Furjanic and Laurie Trotman show you how to take the traditional training cycle (assess, design, delivery, evaluate) and align it with their step-by-step system, which they call "LEARN." This revolutionary approach examines the aduit mind, and shows you how it deals with new information and skills-how it perceives, evaluates, tests, and finally accepts what it has learned. And, Turning Training Into Learning is far more than just an explanation of a training theory. It's packed full of practical advice, guidelines, models, checklists, forms, templates, and other tools, such as: • Ten questions to ask before even accepting a request for training • Three different "styles" of aduit learning • The main 7-step process for designing learner-based training • Activities that engage the trainees' minds and nail down concepts • Tested techniques for capturing and keeping trainees' attention • Five "secrets" for transferring skills from the short-term memory to long-term, permanent utilization • The 4 levels of evaluation • A return-and-apply model for making sure learners apply what theyVe learned when they're back on the job • Tools for measuring results-both for what the learner retained, and for how much business value the training produced Anyone can learn-if you, as the trainer, understand how the natural learning process takes place. Turning Training Into Learning provides a practical, organic way to make sure training becomes learning... every time. Sheila W.
