Have you ever left a class or training program excited about what
you learned, only to realize a month later that you have applied
little of it back on the job? As a training manager have you ever
invested significant dollars and resources to carefully design and
deploy a training program only to see little or no shift in
individual behavior or culture afterwards? Even when your students
passed the knowledge tests and you are certain learning occurred?
As learning professionals, we often focus on the easy
goal--imparting knowledge--and ignoring what it really takes to
create lasting change. Creating a lasting impact on people and
organizations requires much more than knowledge transfer. Lasting
change occurs when learners practice and perfect what they have
learned back on the job, building real skills instead of acquiring
factual information, and, most difficult of all, changing habits so
those new skills are applied consistently for real business results
and bad habits are killed off.
Today there is little time in class to practice skills to a
minimal level of proficiency, let alone achieve outstanding
performance. Learners focus their attention back to their job and
forget what they learned, despite all good intentions.
Post-training reinforcement has been difficult and labor intensive.
Traditional action learning can be effective but the resources
needed to do it properly are not always available for every
training effort. In today's world, instructors and managers don't
have the time to monitor key objectives once students leave the
classroom (or the learning management system). The follow-up to
monitor cohort teams and schedule discussions can overwhelm
instructors or training organizations. Sound familiar?
The good news is that "#SUCCESSFUL CORPORATE LEARNING tweet
Book10: Making Learning Stick: Transforming Knowledge into
Performance" is full of simple research-based techniques you can
use to make training stick. Ways to activate knowledge, improve
retention, and extend skill practice. Techniques to shape behavior
change when students leave the classroom and go back to work. And
the most exciting part is that emerging web and mobile technologies
can be used today to extend your reach, and help you to reinforce
learning, promote retention, build better habits, and create
lasting success.
"#SUCCESSFUL CORPORATE LEARNING tweet Book10" is part of the
THiNKaha series whose slim and handy books contain 140
well-thought-out quotes (tweets/ahas).
