First sentence: While each of the four stages in the training process is important, assessment helps you aim the entire process in the right direction.
Description: "Understanding the natural process of how adults learn is critical to delivering training that's interesting, relevant - and most important - gets tangible results. In Turning Training Into Learning, the authors share their original, time-tested method for how to help trainees internalize a skill so that it sticks. In detail, Sheila Furjanic and Laurie Trotman show you how to take the traditional training cycle (assess, design, delivery, evaluate) and align it with their step-by-step system, which they call "Learn."" "This revolutionary approach examines the adult mind, and shows you how it deals with new information and skills - how it perceives, evaluates, tests, and finally accepts what it has learned. And, Turning Training Into Learning is far more than just an explanation of a training theory. It's packed full of practical advice, guidelines, models, checklists, forms, templates, and other tools."--Jacket.
