“ADEC, Adult Educator in Company” NLP based training for mentors, trainers, instructors, (knowledge) managers … working in companies
One of the main messages of this programme is that people learn in different ways and process it in their own personal way. Differences in genetic make-up, environment and experiences influence the way we learn. Another important message is that people learn ‘holistically’, i.e. using far more than their cognitive rational mind to store information.
The ADEC – Adult Educator in Company programme builds on these findings to establish practical guidelines on how to teach and support learning. It is a unique training programme aimed at all experts in your organisation involved in passing on their knowledge to others, i.e. mentors, trainers, instructors, (knowledge) managers etc., who want to upgrade their skills, looking for some new ideas or just want to evaluate what they are doing now.
The main objectives of the programme are: • being able to pass on the knowledge, skills and competences • getting to know how to adapt the education programme to different types of persons in order to give all learners the opportunity to get the best out of education programme • getting to know innovative models for getting the optimum results out of the learning processes • expanding your understanding of communication processes • getting to know how to plan the education/learning programme • getting practical advice for executing the education programme
