Induction Training - Right First Time

April 19, 2021TDC Blogadmin

Induction training is a huge passion of mine. People are taking the first steps an exciting new career. They have let go of the security and familiarity of their previous job where they were probably highly competent, well-known and comfortable. Now they are taking a step into the unknown. The first few days are incredibly...

So you have a busy day job...

March 31, 2021TDC BlogLimited Time, Personal Effectiveness, Productivity, time management, training designadmin

I feel for you – I really do. No matter how hard you try, those to-do lists just don’t seem to get any shorter do they? Even as my own boss, I seem to be busy all day, every day. This was NOT the plan! The trouble is, work expands to fill the time available....

How do I keep People Engaged in Virtual Training?

March 3, 2021Design, TDC Blog, VirtualEngagement, Technology, training trumpsadmin

It’s a very common question asked by training designers and facilitators right now as Zoom fatigue sets in. It’s certainly one of the biggest concerns of people attending my Designing for Digital Delivery Programme. But contrary to what we might be led to believe, the key to engagement does not lie in some fancy, complicated...

Learning Transfer: Conditions Matter!

February 15, 2021TDC BlogLearning Transferadmin

Any other year, I'd be on the family ski holiday right now. But alas, this year it's not to be for obvious reasons. Even though I'm not a great skier, I do love our week away and being in the mountains. It energises me physically and mentally, and I draw inspiration from it, as I...

Models: Misleading or Helpful?

February 2, 2021Design, TDC Blogadmin

I saw another post today citing the 70:20:10 Model of learning, explaining how it can be used to create a great learning programme. Learning Styles are still talked about as fixed things. I have a healthy level of cynicism about any type of personality profiling. Yet I DO still refer to Learning styles (though I’m...

Icebreakers

January 10, 2021Activities, TDC Blog, VirtualIce-Breakers, icebreakersadmin

Why have them? and how can they be used differently in virtual training? Although some people don’t enjoy them, icebreakers play a vital role in live training whether that's face-to-face or virtual. It’s difficult for people to contribute when they don’t know who each other is, so it’s a good way of introducing everyone to...

How can you Copyright Learning?

December 27, 2020Design, TDC Blogcopyright, materials designadmin

As training designers we often get into conversations about intellectual property and copyright of training materials. Most L&D professionals - especially independent ones - are very precious about their material and don’t want anyone else (not even their clients) to have it. But in this Netflix age, I do wonder if it's possible to copyright...

When does 'prep' become 'design'?

December 7, 2020Design, TDC BlogDesign, freelance, training designadmin

Why are training designers often asked to work for free? I know times are hard, but more and more freelance consultants are being asked to put in a CONSIDERABLE amount of design time into work that may or may not come off. Freelance facilitators know that not all their time is paid for, that they...

Learning should be EASY

December 1, 2020Design, TDC Blogadmin

As a rule, we human beings like to have an easy life. There is a well-known law in physics that states that an object moving along a system will always choose the path of least resistance i.e. it will naturally select the route that is easiest to negotiate. People are no different. It doesn’t mean...
