'Disciplines of A Learner'

-

 


As a Peter Drucker once said, “We now accept the fact that learning is a lifelong process of keeping abreast of change. And the most pressing task is to teach people how to learn.” 

Lifelong learning is a form of self-initiated education that is focused on personal development. While there is no standardized definition of lifelong learning, it has generally been taken to refer to the learning that occurs outside of a formal educational institute, such as a school, university or corporate training.

 

Passion for development is the key for humans and the drive to explore, learn and grow and encourages us to improve our own quality of life and sense of self-worth by paying attention to the ideas and goals that inspire us.

Points to view…

·       Recognize your own personal interests, motivations and goals – What.
·       Put it down and create a list of what you would like to learn or be able to do – Why.
·       Identify how you would like to get involved and the resources available – How.
·       Structure the learning goal into your life.
·       Connect the new information with the old ones.

·      Focus & commitment.

 

Studies have showed that people who are passionate, learn much faster than those who are motivated by fear and my aim always is to share this passion for improvement, development and growth to the trainees. There’s nothing better than seeing the people around you involved in what you actively participate in. As a lifelong learner, you are extremely passionate about constant growth, and people around you can sense that positive attitude. As a result, they start acting similarly.

  Always share in my interactions with clients and other L&D professionals (sharing it with you for another time) that, a trainer’s job is not only to teach trainees. A trainer’s also responsibility is to teach trainees to know how to learn, as well as to give them the motivation at the same time to constantly want to learn. So is very important to consider many things before creating a training program, during the training program and of course after… the training program. In my experience and knowledge, you can use all the latest technologies you want, but unless employees can see how the training is beneficial, they will not be motivated to be a part of it. The instructor also is the most important key cause must be effective to connect, interact, engage and transmit the training program including meaningful content.   It is important to take a broad perspective when designing a training program using blended methods so it is important for the trainer to have a blended… mindset,

  Recently read a very interesting report by Eurostat, on Adult Learning Statistics for 2022, in EU countries where I repost it full below.   My statement through this report, is that organizations in many EU countries doesn’t realizing the importance of long-term training in their workplace.   Continuous learning helps develop a “growth mindset”, motivating employees to adopt a flexible and adaptable attitude.

Regarding the after training for
