If it is difficult to schedule regular training sessions in your organization, a blended approach may be the right answer for you. A blended approach combines the best of all worlds, independent study (usually through e-learning) and group coaching sessions.
Our research has proven that a combined approach increases bottom line results by as much as 60% over classroom instruction alone. The combined learning must allow the learner to acquire a skill at their own pace, apply that knowledge to the workplace and then practice and receive coaching. Blended learning maximizes training efficiency. Because learners are acquiring foundational knowledge at their own pace, when they attend a review or coaching session, the time is spent practicing and receiving feedback rather than introducing new concepts. Live training time is typically reduced by 60% or more.
