Overview

As Training Magazine reported, the average employee training budget for large companies runs into the millions of dollars. But how much of these budgets is dedicated to developing employee training methods and techniques that get team members thinking outside the box?

Effective employee training methods drive engagement and growth. Providing creative and active training can provide deeper understanding of how an employee’s job serves the bigger picture. If they enjoy it, it might give them a higher motivation to excel and advance along the way.

What can you do to insure your employee training techniques stand out? To encourage employees to give your company their all, you need to advocate creativity from day one, starting with your employee training methods.

In this highly interactive session, join trainer Karen Lawson, as participants will be introduced to a variety of creative and active-training techniques to enhance their training programs, regardless of content. They will experience proven techniques for facilitating these activities to meet learning objectives and audience needs.

Attendees will learn

  • Explain the concept, principles, strategies, and techniques of active training
  • Use active-training methods to increase retention, build understanding, and improve skills
  • Adapt active-training techniques to any course content
  • Use creative approaches to motivate and energize the group
