What steps can be taken during training programs to motivate trainees to learn? How can learning be reinforced during a training program?

What will be an ideal response?

Answer: Learners are more motivated to learn something that has meaning for them. Therefore:
1. At the start of training, provide an overview of the material that you are going to present.
2. Use familiar examples.
3. Organize the information so you can present it logically and in meaningful units.
4. Use visual aids.
5. Create a perceived training need in trainees' minds.

Learning can be reinforced by making sure the learner gets plenty of feedback. In particular:
1. Trainees learn best when the trainers immediately reinforce correct responses, perhaps with a quick "well done."
2. Provide follow-up assignments at the close of training, so trainees are reinforced by having to apply back on the job what they've learned.
