Questions from exit cards Course Content ¨ Is rewarding trainees always an obstacle? (e.g. if it’s funded higher-

level education, wouldn’t employees willingly join?) ¨ What kind of metrics might we use for needs analysis? ¨ How do we convince management that needs analysis is important?

What if they don’t listen? ¨ What if we train someone and they leave for another organization? ¨ Does training always lead to a positive outcome? Are there

instances where training does not lead to efficiency? How does the HR department deal with this?

In-class case discussion ¨ If something bad happens to the customer, who is liable? ¨ What did Tim Hortons do afterwards? ¨ Will questions from the case discussions be on the final exam?

contractors to complete it ¤ Bids are reviewed after deadline ¤ Sometimes further information is

Training Content 13

© Anny Fong

• Relevant to task performance • Meaningful to traineesRelevance

• Based on training needs and objectives • Can be determined by gap between current

state and future state Validity

• May be determined by legislative requirementsRegulations

• SMEs may specify training contentExpertise

Training Methods 14

© Anny Fong

How

• Active vs. Passive

• One-way vs. Two-way

• Informational vs. Experiential

Where

• On-the-job • Off-the-job • Technology-

delivered

Considerations: • Learning and retention

are best achieved through methods that promote productive responses and actively engage trainees

• Blended training uses a combination of approaches

• Conditions of practice (pre-training and during training)

Pre-training interventions 15

© Anny Fong

¨ Prepare trainees for receiving and using information

•Info about the task to help performance/learning

Attentional advice

•Think about one’s thinkingMetacognitive strategies

•Framework to help organize and learn contentAdvice organizers

•Learning and performance goalsGoal orientation

•What to expectPreparatory information

•Roles, responsibilities, expectationsPre-practice briefs

Active learning 16

© Anny Fong

¨ Give trainees control over their learning so that they become active participants in their own learning experience

Exploratory

• Explore and experiment with training tasks

• Infer and learn the rules, principles, strategies

Error framing

• Encouraging trainees to make errors

• View errors as instrument for learning

Emotion control

• Strategy to help trainees control their emotions during learning

Error-Management Training (EMT) 17

© Anny Fong

¨ Training that explicitly encourages trainees to make errors during training and to learn from them

Image sources: The Noun Project: cheer by Adrien Coquet, ride bike by corpus delicti

Error-avoidant Error-management instructions

Error-Management Training (EMT) 18

© Anny Fong

Trainees are ¨ Provided with basic,

training-relevant information

¨ Told to explore problems on their own

¨ Told to expect errors and frame them positively

Error-Management Training (EMT) 19

© Anny Fong

¨ Errors inform of areas for improvement

¨ Develop thoughtful strategies and deeper info processing

¨ Errors lead to greater practice

¨ Learn error-recovery strategies

¨ Errors lead to greater exploration

Effectiveness of EMT 20

© Anny Fong

¨ EMT is more effective than error- avoidant training for learning and performance

¨ EMT is especially effective in certain circumstances: ¤ Post-training performance ¤ Tasks that require adaptive expertise ¤ Accompanied by error-management

instructions

The Beer Store case

Breakout Discussion 1. Write three training objectives of We ID 25. 2. If you were to hold an RFP to outsource this

training, what evaluation criteria would you use?

3. What training method(s) would you use and why?

4. How might EMT be incorporated in the training?

5. What could be some practical challenges of implementing this training?
