It’s an area L&D experts need to learn more about and leverage from. We should be trusted advisors in L&D about how adults learn.What happens after the nesting period is very powerful. Archwell conducts ‘assessments’ about a month after nesting, through reflective questions such as how relevant the information has been, how prepared people have felt after the course, etc. It’s more of a reflection piece and not a test.Chapters:(00:00:00) Introduction.(00:03:31) The greatest challenges with learning transfer.(00:07:17) Adopting academic capabilities as an approach at Archwell.(00:09:23) Understanding the science of learning for L&D professionals.(00:12:27) Getting people to reconnect with learning.(00:16:32) The nesting process.(00:23:47) Evolving your post-assessment questions.(00:25:24) Advice to people who want to use assessment to drive learning transfer.Links from the podcast Visit Keith’s WebsiteConnect with Keith on LinkedInCheck out ArchwellCheck out The Learning-Transfer Evaluation Model (LTEM)Read ‘Make It Stick’Read ‘Performance-Focused Smile Sheets'
