A useful training plan starts with understanding the people who will take part. Their responsibilities, existing experience, and development goals provide a foundation for choosing appropriate learning opportunities.
Flexible learning can help organizations plan around working patterns. Online study and instructor-led sessions offer different opportunities for learners to engage with information, ask questions, and discuss practical examples.
Planning also includes thinking about what happens after training. Giving people opportunities to reflect on their learning and discuss its relevance helps connect professional development with everyday workplace activity.
POINTS TO REFLECT ON
Keep the conversation going.
- Start with learner goals and workplace responsibilities.
- Consider how learning fits around working patterns.
- Plan opportunities to discuss and revisit new knowledge.
