Benefits of IDL vs 4-Walls Training: The Learner

First - apologies for the long delay ... busy holiday season!

So what's in it for The Learner? Again, there's a list:
  • Small Chunks. Material is delivered in short - generally 1 hour or less - sessions; rather than the half-day, full-day or several day format typical of 4-walls training. These 1 hour, topic & skill focused sessions, make it much easier for all of us, as Learners, to absorb the new behaviors, attitudes and/or skills ... and to actually work with them ... before having to move on to learn some more.

  • No horrible in class "role plays" or other artificial, awkward exercises! With an IDL class, we Learners get to practise our new skills and abilities in our real world of work - with real people, in real situations.

  • On-Time Learning. Even if the Learner is one of just 1, 2 or a few who need the particular course, it can be delivered ... without waiting for enough people to make it cost effective.

Next time ... Benefits for the Trainers.
