Registration


Registration is closed

Attendees will learn what they can do before, during, and after a training program to ensure that skills are applied on the job. They will also learn how to form strategic partnerships with management and how to impact the organization as a whole, to improve training transfer.   

 

Thus, this topic addresses the “Improving human performance” competency, in that attendees will learn how to “partner with the customer when identifying the opportunity and the solution; implementing then solution; monitoring the change; and evaluating the results.”

 

It also addresses the “Managing the learning function” competency, which is described as “providing leadership in developing human capital to execute the organization’s strategy; planning, organizing, monitoring, and adjusting activities associated with the administration of workplace learning and performance.”

 

Participants will be able to:

·      Define what is meant by “the transfer of training”

·      Explain why it’s important to stop doing training as an activity and start doing training to impact ROI: The stunning cost of transfer failure

·      Name the top nine barriers to training transfer

·      List at least 20 actions that can be taken before training, 20 actions during training, and 20 actions after training, to improve the probability that skills learned in training will be applied on the job

·      Identify which actions must be taking by the trainer, which by supervisors/managers, and which by trainees, in order to effect the transfer of training.  

 

Schedule:

11:30-1pm-  Program and Lunch
