Career Development School

Effective skill-based training allows participants to learn conceptual information or necessary behaviors, practice learning the new information or behaviors, and receive feedback on their performance.

Making the most of a training program:  Have a discussion with supervisor regarding reasons for attending, what you hope to get out of it;  Post-conference – debrief the experience.  Discuss what you have learned at the training session and how you might immediately apply it to your work.  Practice skills that you learned.
