- "Any training program participant should have a solid answer for the question: What’s in it for me? Creating an experience that is relevant and can help learners solve an immediate problem is a basic tenet of adult learning."
- "Often when I offer a webinar, I’ll ask registrants to share something they hope to learn from the session. This is a very soft (informal) way to help with goal setting, which is an element that you can formally or informally incorporate into your training design."
- "A common goal setting strategy is to provide an action plan for participants to complete at the end of a training program. During longer training programs that cover many concepts, I like to distribute the action plan at the beginning of the session and make sure there is time during content transitions for participants to capture action plan ideas (instead of making them wait until the end and hoping they remember some of the earlier concepts that were covered)."
