Congratulations! You’ve developed the greatest training program ever. The content is ideally suited to your business problems, the technology works, and the employees seem to like it. There’s only one problem… nobody knows what to do with it when they return to their jobs.
If that’s not a nightmare scenario for a training professional, we don’t know what is!
Ultimately, we need our employees to learn, retain, and then apply what they learn to improve their knowledge and skills and reach higher levels of performance. That’s the goal. But how many times do we fail to see the ROI we expect? How many times do we see well-executed content NOT applied on the job? How many times do we have to go back to the CFO and explain why the ROI we expected never materialized.
Kristi McNabb, Revenue Operations Manager at BizLibrary, will help you discover how and when employees apply learning to improve their job performance, explain the role managers play in helping employees retain training and drive ROI, and help you understand how microlearning can be a great tool to help employees in their moment of need.
During this webinar, Kristi will provide easy-to-understand insights on:
How to help employees apply their learning and improve job performance
A manager’s role in employee retention and training ROI
How microlearning is a great tool for helping employees acquire skills just when they need them
... and much more!

8. We need a learning revolution: in the
schools, at home, and in the workplace.
Although the science of learning has
made enormous advances over the past
decade, its discoveries have remained
restricted to academic journals and
conferences. It’s time to liberate this
knowledge for the good of learners
everywhere.”

11. Human Learning Process
Encoding
Short-term memory,
observations, memory
traces and what we’ve
seen (limited capacity)
Retrieval
Forced retrieval is
most effective after
time intervals and
some forgetting has
occurred
Consolidation
Time scientists believe
the brain replays or
rehearses the
learning, new
knowledge next to
neural markers
19. ROI + Business Benefit Require Application
That’s why the Kirkpatrick-Phillips Model still
matters…
Employees must learn . . .
Employees must retain what they’ve learned
Employees must apply what they’ve learned to improve performance
Simple, right? Should be, but too many organizations struggle with it.
20. No matter how much you invest into
training and development, nearly
everything you teach to your
employees will be forgotten.
Indeed, although corporations spend 60
billion dollars a year on training, this
investment is like pumping gas into a car
that has a hole in the tank. All of your hard
work simply drains away.”

In your organization, how do your
managers support employees in the
application of new things to their
jobs?
37. In your organization, how do your managers support employees in the
application of new things to their jobs :
a. Our managers offer little support, mostly because they are not committed
to learning and development themselves.
b. Our managers offer little to no support, mostly because they are not willing
to do so.
c. Our managers offer little to no support because they do not know how to
do so.
d. Managers provide some support, but not enough.

40. Overcoming the Curve
Manager Key for the 2 Month Mark
Employees should be applying what they’ve learned . . . .
• Compare new levels of performance to performance gap analysis
• Still gaps?
• What part of learning is and is not being applied?
• Managers must explore any barriers to application of learning now!
41. Sample Question for Managers
Provide a specific instance where you had a problem
applying the active listening skills training we’ve been
working on over the last two months?
• What happened?
• What do you think caused the problem?
• What might you have done differently?
• What was the outcome?
42. Stakeholder
• Employees and managers are part of
interconnected system of learning (encoding),
consolidation and retrieval.
• And in the end - application!
• Employees and managers alike must see
value and purpose behind learning.
• Managers must know how to incorporate
learning into work environment.
43. The contextual cues in the
learning and remembering
situations.
The difficulty of the
retention test.
The power of the
learning methods used.
The type of material
being learned.
Connect Stakeholders to Content
The amount of time the
learning has to be
retained.The learners’ prior
knowledge and
motivation to learn.
SOURCE: How Much Do People Forget? Will
Thalheimer
44. Content’s Relation to Learner
When content is important to the
learner, relevant to their experience and
based upon things they already know.
45. Content Design and Delivery
• Visual content (video), short bursts both during
training and for retention purposes
• Anchor learning with context – visual cues
• Make recollection of content difficult but not
impossible. Review with correct answers after
intervals - allow some forgetting to occur
46. Key
Take-Aways
Employee application of learning to
improved job performance begins
BEFORE training programs ever start!
Managers are a crucial part of the
retention/application ecosystem to drive
ROI and business benefits.
Microlearning can be a great tool to help
employees in the moment of need as a
direct application of newly acquired skills to
job performance.
