Training programs should be designed keeping "interest" and "fun" as core factor. Nobody likes to sit in a boardroom and watch PPT decks explaining diagrams. Some training programs I atteneded were pretty interesting, they had few things like

  1. Small groups and group tasks
  2. Goup shuffling
  3. Small project assigning people multiple roles etc
  4. Demos of the skills etc


Also, trainer plays a very important role here. A good trainer can create a lot of interest even in boring subjects.

A trainer is trained in certain topics to give idea about topic. But trainer has no deep knowledge about discussion or training subject. So it is better to take supports of expert and professional qualified educator to give deep knowledge about subjective training. - Er. Jangyadutta 62 months ago
Professionals like Doctor, Teacher, Scientists, professors may be preferred. - Er. Jangyadutta 62 months ago

The term MOOC was coined in 2008 by Dave Cormier of the University of Prince Edward Island in response to a course called Connectivism and Connective Knowledge (also known as CCK08 ). CCK08, which was led by George Siemens of Athabasca University and Stephen Downes of the National Research Council , consisted of 25 tuition-paying students in Extended Education at the University of Manitoba. - Dr. David E. 62 months ago

I like this , however, it depends only on the trainer. A good trainer is more than enough than material.

If you have a rapidly changing environment it could be better to create a pull system through some performance support system. Perhaps the training would be on methods to best use the performance support tools. Everyone assimilates technical material at different rates so a pull system saves the fast assimilators from boring class time.

Great insights: A Pull System is a control-oriented system that operates by receiving signals that more production is needed. A pull system is contrasted with a typical push system that is common with mass production. - Dr. David E. 62 months ago

To me, one of the most important parts of learning programs for employees is to create exercises or an environment which allow the employees to test out their ideas in a safe space. So, having them work through examples as a team or having people share experiences and let others critique it is very useful. then the teaching/learning moves from the trainer to the group
