Have you heard these complaints from designers and trainers?

• “We want to change our training, but our boss insists on his command and control style.”
• “My SMEs (Subject Matter Experts)  demand that all content must be lectured. So we overload learners.”
• “Our employees complain a lot since we keep training them on the same topic, same subject, over and over again, every year for compliance, but  they are so boring.”
• “Our learners don’t spend time on training and learning, because they are too long.”
• “Our learners find the topics irrelevant.”

The above are just examples of the moaning and complaining of workers, learners, L&D specialists, and leaders. Their “Training Is Broken”. How then, can they fix them?

Ray will discuss the following:

• What are the roots of “evil” in failed or broken training programs?
• How do you classify which one is deeply rooted or is just a lack of knowledge and skills or resources?
• What are superficial fixes and “band-aids” that won’t last?
• How do you fix or improve the problems in the following:?
• Meaningless content
• Long content
• Disinterested learners
• Spoon feeding learning
• Lack of application training
• Boring training

What should successful L&D specialists do? Where is focus fixed in design, authoring, multimedia, platform, and delivery?

When you register you may be able to submit advanced questions on “Broken Training” and receive a response from Ray.

Have you ever needed to:

• Implement complex systems or functional upgrades?
• Train thousands of users?
• Develop what feels like endless content?
• Set up and maintain costly live training environments?
• Support rapidly changing processes and training material?
