What makes adult learning different from how children learn? In corporate training, we often assume that if information is clear and well-structured, adults will absorb it—but adult learners have unique needs, motivations, and constraints that shape how they engage with learning experiences.
This fast-paced session provides a foundational overview of adult learning principles, including how experience, autonomy, relevance, and problem-solving shape engagement and retention. You’ll learn what adult learners need to stay motivated, why traditional training methods often fall flat, and what research tells us about designing learning that actually works. Whether you create training, facilitate workshops, or support workplace learning, this session will give you a solid grounding in the fundamentals of adult learning—without the fluff.
