Quick Sticky Tips for
Making Training Stick

Before Training:

  • Specify how the learning will be applied to the job. 
  • Give a pep talk focusing on the belief that the skills can be learned and they will make a difference on the job.

During Training:

  • For elearning, encourage use of headphones to reduce distractions.
  • For webinars and face-to-face learning, focus only on the learning presentation – turn phone off, clear mind of distracting thoughts.
  • Use affirmations to boost confidence. 

After Training: 

  • Reconnect later with other participants and the trainer to share lessons learned.
  • Remind regularly to apply key learnings: Use a calendar to tickler reminders for yourself;  Use email or microblogs such as Twitter to remind others.
