WHAT IS ONE GLARING PROBLEM WITH TRAINING?

In short, there is an assumption that what occurs in a training program will be quickly applied to the job and the learning will be re-enforced until it “sinks-in”, is easily recalled and is practical with measurable returns.

If you do not practice, using a defined schedule of what you just learned, then your learning will have minimal value and be quickly lost.

WHAT IS APPLIED LEARNING EXTENSIONS™

Applied Learning Extensions™ is a process with specific learning activities that will be generated about 10 times over 90 days following a training program.

An activity can be as simple as a 1 minute email or a 20 minute practice.

The information gained inthe learning program is moved into long term memory through use, repetition and applied practice.

ALE™ re-enforces that learning on the job through immediate application and recall.

ALE helps to close the learning retention and retrieval gap by exposing the learners to timed activities with increasing levels of direct participation by the learner using different (interleaving) practice activities.

Day 12 – small group of learnersare invited to actively participatein a 20 minute webinar based on a learning course scenario.

This session is repeated for alllearners who took the trainingcourse. One person per groupis pre-designated to initiate aquestion, conversation orpoint of view for the group todiscuss.

Important note on timed spacing of practice:

The optimal spacing gap depends on the test delay,such that shorter spacing gaps tended to producebetter retention after longer delays. More specifically, memory retention was best when the spacing gap wasabout 10-20% of the test delay.
