How do Student Learn?
NPR Article says learn it 2 different ways ...
I have used the phrase "Learn it from different perspectives",
and learn things over time ...
I use the phrase "It's NOT a RACE, it's a JOURNEY"

My rate for Adult Learning is $__ per hour.
If I am doing a class, I charge a 2-hour Prep fee per class.
If I am doing sessions - the Prep fee is one hour for each session.
. Usually, a class is 2 - 3 hours long, which includes a workshop. How long and what level classes depends largely on what level your employees are at. You should have at least two training sessions, 3 hours each. Repetition is key. The more you repeat - and support - the easier it is for employees.
Samples of types of classes:
Staff Training on Cloud Computing
Google Drive & Google Doc in the first class (about an hour on each topic & workshops)
Spreadsheets and Calendar in the second class.
Google Drive - is file management, creating directories, uploading and downloading files, images, spreadsheets, pdf's. We cover moving & renaming files, moving & renaming directories, sharing and unsharing directories, files, and sharing levels. An overview of Google Groups. Setting up an Alert on a file. Learning how to collaborate with these tools and how sharing levels impacts each. The Google Drive training is reinforced in Docs, Sheets(Google's Spreadsheets) and even Calendar. Google Drive is Word 2003, before the ribbon, however, it is set up to embrace on-line documents where Word accommodates paper documents, and understanding this makes it easier to accept the differences. And why Docs is NOT Word, but better in our Collaborative paperless world. Learn to Export a PDF, Word Doc or other formats, and understand how to import them. Spreadsheets are not intuitive to many people - American School Systems are strong on word processing and books. Spreadsheets give us additional tools to sort, calculate and manipulate data. Depending on what you need your employees to do in Sheets would direct me to what I should cover. At the College level, we have two 15 week courses on Spreadsheets and a Statistics class - I could teach anything. Calendars is a rich and flexible tool - it can do a lot! and interacts well with computers, phones & tablets. The basic intro to it is an hour.
