When I got older, I always seemed to have jobs that required me to travel (someone has a warped sense of humor). Instead of the nice map cover, I had an obscure piece of Pennsylvania highway on the front. I did not do well folding a map and only a little better reading it.

I have spent much of my life running classroom courses and feeling I was doing a really good job. Of course some needs will still have to be met using a face-to-face classroom approach, but that won't keep everyone who's currently a classroom trainer in a job, unless you want to earn half as much. First thought: I'm not sure.

Does this data show that employees changed their behavior on the job based on your training? How have employees’ behaviors on-the-job changed since training took place? Now the big question is…How? It shows they did it and passed a test. It shows if they liked it. But none of this means they actually learned anything.

The reason only 10%-15% of what is learned shows up on the job is that most of what you learn disappears rapidly unless it’s reinforced by reflection and practice. You need to wait a while before taking the assessment. Smile-sheets and test scores prove nothing because they are administered before the forgetting curve sets in.
