Make Your Training "STICK"
One of the best ways to make training “stick” is to allow time for participants to review material that has been presented. In fact, material that has been reviewed by participants is five times as likely to be retained as material that has not. Reviewing allows participants to “save” the information in their brains. a great technique that promotes review is to always end your training program with a competitive review game, It's fun great way to end your training on a high note and at the same time give a great wrap up and reminder of all the learning points and key concepts of the training and can help you gauge how effective the learning process was.
