If you want to train employees effectively, you need to be aware of who you're training. At the end of the day, the goal of training employees is to increase knowledge so that they can complete their tasks more effectively – but every employee is different.
The 4 most common learning styles are:
Visual Learners: Your employees with this learning style learn best when the training is presented to them visually. Graphics and videos resonate more strongly with these types.
Audio Learners: Individuals who are audio learners do their best when physically listening to the content being taught to them.
Reading Learners: These individuals learn best by taking in information displayed as words. Their preferred method of having information presented to them is through text-based material. These learners are perfect for textbook style manuals and learning off of written handouts and PowerPoint presentations.
Kinesthetic Learners: These learners retain the most amount of information with their senses, as they learn via experience. This even includes tasting, touching, and smelling. Essentially, these employees learn best by experiencing things hands-on.
