Presented by Ida Shessel, B.Sc., M.Ed.
In the age of instant information, does it matter if employees can’t recall information about your company and its products, services, customers, policies, processes, or procedures?
Lack of credibility and trustworthiness, poor sales and referral opportunities, as well as decreased flexibility and responsiveness to everyday situations are all consequences of having a bad memory on the job.
What if...
- trainees could learn and retain content faster?
- re-training could be reduced or even eliminated?
- learning transfer could be increased?
In this session, you will learn about and experience some of the brain training strategies memory athletes use to win national memory competitions.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this session, participants should be able to
- describe 3 principles of memory that work together to encode information in the brain
- apply a strategy that immediately multiplies memory and improves concentration and focus
- identify opportunities to apply memory techniques to training design and delivery
This session is for new and experienced facilitators and instructional designers who are looking for strategies to increase learner engagement, retention of content, and learning transfer.
