An assumption nearly everyone makes is that the best a teacher can hope for is to get most of
their students to learn the concept they are teaching. In fact, in the segment of education that
prepares people specifically for work (CTE, apprenticeships, and corporate training), many
instructors believe that a 70-80 percent success rate is satisfactory. But based on his nearly forty
years of experience preparing thousands of workplace instructors, Dr. Johnson believes we can
obtain a 100 percent success rate.

In fact, he has helped thousands of instructors reach 100 percent learner success by teaching all
sorts of skills, both technical and soft, all across the US and Canada. Training Design
Simplified is a nonfiction book that speaks to CEOs, HR, training directors and instructors who
are looking to create a more effective training system and significantly improve the training
experience for their students and employees. The tips and techniques that Dr. Johnson offers will
shatter the traditionally boring training experience and help you provide an experience that
positively impacts your organization.
