1. Employee Training Solutions Metacognitive Solutions The Science of Learning Applied in Your Corporation to Increase Efficiency of Training Programs

2. Benefits to You

Increased training in less time with cost savings.

3. More efficient company operations 4. Better customer service 5. Fewer instances of and less severe frustration on the part of employees, decreasing turnover. 6. Fewer employee disputes to resolve 7. Decreased liability for the acts of under-trained and/or angry employees 8. Cheaper and easier maintenance of learned skills 9. Benefits to Employees

Known performance expectations

10. Ability to meet expectations 11. Fewer customer complaints 12. Less frustration and general dissatisfaction 13. Pride that comes with working for a leader in its field 14. Fewer disagreements with managers and co-workers 15. The Scientific Learning Approach

Applications of many decades of experimental research into learning, supporting explicit mathematical models for training evaluation and progress

16. Use of precise metrics, such as the differential between ideal and realized learning curves, with measurements against baselines. 17. Similarly precise solutions, with rapid implementation and progress toward completion. 18. Novel perspective on learning that employees will find fascinating and easy to learn, to increase general trainability. 19. What is Learning?

Learning involves the association of predictive stimuli with stimuli we value that meet our needs.For example, seeing a sign in front of a restaurant that serves good meals may stimulate your appetite. Learning proceeds as functions of

The number of an inverse relationship between perceived goal-related permutations and actual permutations within each stage, such as in a process

20. General and task-specific intelligence, defined asrate of processing of predictive associations 21. Task design efficiency toward goal. 22. Motivation, including schedule effects. 23. Tools

Quantitative tools to facilitate optimal learning include:

Measurement of the effectiveness of changes to training programs compared to ideal stochastic(random) rates, and baseline rates(originalrates, before intervention).

24. Diagnosis of training difficulties due to lack of appropriate perceived permutation spaces(number of possible ways to complete each step in a task), compared to the actual spaces. 25. Comparison of baseline, intervention, and ideal learning rates, when permuations are held constant to assess employee motivation. 26. Task breakdown for process improvements. 27. Results Determination

Results are precise, explicit, and quantitative.

They can be measured early, before the completion of training programs using simple derivatives of plotting learning curves versus baseline and ideal.

28. The effectiveness of incentives are precisely revealed in the process, allowing for changes in motivation. 29. These metrics translated into dollars and cents. 30. Maintenance

Your supervisors and training staff can receive direct education to develop future training programs and changes with less need for outside assistance.
