We need a learning revolution: in the schools, at home, and in the workplace. Although the science of learning has made enormous advances over the past decade, its discoveries have remained restricted to academic journals and conferences. It’s time to liberate this knowledge for the good of learners everywhere.”

The 3 Functional Components of Effective Employee Training

EncodingShort-term memory, observations, memory traces and what we’ve seen (limited capacity)

RetrievalForced retrieval is most effective after time intervals and some forgetting has occurred

ConsolidationTime scientists believe the brain replays or rehearses the learning, new knowledge next to neural markers

Human Learning Process

ROIReturn on investment

ROI + Business Benefit Require ApplicationThat’s why the Kirkpatrick/Phillips Model still matters…

Employees must learn . . . Employees must retain what they’ve learnedEmployees must apply what they’ve learned to improve performance

Simple, right? Should be, but too many organizations struggle with it.

No matter how much you invest into training and development, nearly everything you teach to your employees will be forgotten.

Indeed, although corporations spend 60 billion dollars a year on training, this investment is like pumping gas into a car that has a hole in the tank. All of your hard work simply drains away.”

Overcoming the Curve Manager Key for the 2 Month Mark

Employees should be applying what they’ve learned . . . .

• Compare new levels of performance to performance gap analysis• Still gaps?• What part of learning is and is not being applied?• Managers must explore any barriers to application of learning

now!

Sample Question for ManagersProvide a specific instance where you had a problem applying the active listening skills training we’ve been working on over the last two months?• What happened?• What do you think caused the problem?• What might you have done differently?• What was the outcome?

Stakeholder

• Employees and managers are part of interconnected system of learning (encoding), consolidation and retrieval.

• And in the end - application!

• Employees and managers alike must see valueand purpose behind learning.

• Managers must know how to incorporate learning into work environment.

The contextual cues in the learning and remembering situations.

The difficulty of the retention test.

The power of the learning methods used.

The type of material being learned.

Connect Stakeholders to Content

The amount of time the learning has to be retained.The learners’ prior

knowledge and motivation to learn.

SOURCE: How Much Do People Forget? Will Thalheimer

Content’s Relation to LearnerWhen content is important to learner, relevant to their experience and based upon things they already know.

Content Design and Delivery

• Visual content (video) works best, short bursts both before forgotten and for retention purposes

• Anchor learning with context – visual cues – works best

• Make recollection of content difficult but not impossible. Review with correct answers after intervals - allow some forgetting to occur

Key Take-Aways

Employee application of learning to improved job performance BEGINS before training programs ever start!

Managers are a crucial part of the retention/application ecosystem to drive ROI and business benefits.

Micro-learning can be a great tool to help employees in moment of need (direct application) of newly acquired skills to job performance.
