Our brain is the driver of all learning, motivation and behaviour. For effective learning to happen however, specific conditions and deliberate actions must be taken. The ability to unlock this learning potential is a critical skill for all L&D practitioners.

Content

This program provides essential knowledge of the brain’s role in learning and offers a strong practical focus to translate the latest neuroscience into the design and delivery of effective learning experiences.

By distilling the latest neuroscience across five core areas of learning design and delivery, the NeuroEMBED^TM Framework helps L&D practitioners to create programs that embed knowledge into memory and behaviours into habits. These include:

Environment – creating ideal learning environments, within the brain & classroom
Memory – tapping into the brain’s memory processes to build long-term recall
Behaviour – managing behaviours that limit learning
Engagement – increasing motivation, curiosity and drive to learn
Development – enhancing learning transfer and development of new habits.

This program builds on the broad introduction provided by AITD’s Adult Learning course. This additional program expands on key concepts, providing specific brain-based approaches for effective learning design and delivery. Neither program requires prerequisites or prior knowledge.

Outcomes

This program gives participants the knowledge and skills to drive greater outcomes from their learning programs, including:

Increased learner engagement, participation and attention
Enhanced memory, recall and behaviour change
Increased learning transfer back on the job
Stronger leader support and involvement.

Audience

This course is ideal for all L&D practitioners, vocational education teachers or training professionals who are looking to create learning experiences that leverage the brain’s abilities to learn and change.
