Making E-Learning Stick: Techniques for Easy and Effective Transfer of Technology-Supported Training

E-learning and virtual training have become increasingly popular means of delivering workplace learning content, yet they often fall short when it comes to engaging learners. How can you ensure that learners understand the learning content and can apply their new knowledge back on the job? As with classroom training, you need to build in fail-proof ways of reinforcing the learning.

Making E-Learning Stick is comprised of 25+ easy-to-implement, low- or no-cost techniques that will increase learning transfer in both asynchronous e-learning and live virtual training. The techniques can be used alone or in combination with one another, providing you with numerous ideas and strategies for enhancing learning transfer.

A handy resource for any e-learning designer or facilitator, Making E-Learning Stick is the follow-up to the popular ASTD Press title Making Learning Stick.
