Human Connection + Engagement = Increased Learning

We mentioned in our last two blog posts that we found three key reasons why live, instructor-led training is superior to content-based, self-learning. In this third post, we highlight how active learners and live instructors make a difference in training experiences. The third reason live instructors are preferred is because human connection increases learning. Live instructors stimulate idea sharing, discussions, and healthy competition among participants.

Has anyone accused you of being too clear?

Caught off guard by a question at work, do you blurt out the first thing that comes to mind? Or do you take a moment to marshal your thoughts? According to McLuhan & Davies Communications, most of us are not too adept at thinking on our feet. Extroverts tend to respond with far more information than the situation warrants, while an introvert, at worst, might say nothing. Most communication is one-on-one, informal, and impromptu. Often your boss will ping or call you asking fo

Actively engaged learners retain 90% of what is taught.

In one of our last blog posts, we explored reason one of three why live, instructor-led training is superior to content-based, self-learning. The second reason why live instructors are preferred is to provide enhanced energy, empathy, and direction. Students receive real-time awareness, encouragement, and contagious enthusiasm about the topic from a live facilitator. Live instructors provide space for questions, discussions, and a timely break keeping participants engaged to

Suppose you're boarding a plane to fly to your dream vacation destination...

Which training method would make you feel most confident that the pilot is proficient enough to transport you safely? A. The pilot read manuals and watched videos to learn to fly B. The pilot practiced in realistic flight simulators and received live instruction from an expert with step-by-step practice of how to take off, fly, and safely land the plane Laying out the two options probably makes the answer obvious, and highlights our learnings based on interviewing fifty
