Good point about the goals of corporate training… But individual people will almost always have their own personal objectives and motivations, regardless of the corporate trainers/trainings… And so i think maybe there should be a way to incorporate learner goals, aspirations, motivations in order to make the experience valuable. Otherwise, you set the learning goals, but you have no guarantee that they are reaching the learners at all – i think focusing on the learner might help corporate training offer variety of content and pathways towards goals… If that makes sense? I used to work at Procter and Gamble and in that company, we get trainings where folks from diff departments participate. The diversity is great, but there are also opportunities to meet individual needs esp. If doing some of that training online over an extended period of time, rather than a few days f2f. Other trainings brought folks from same department but from diff countries, and again the diversity helped but there were local contextual issues that meant we each had diff needs. I don’t think i am saying anything new here, really. Just saying even though some goals might be centralized and pre-set away from learners, some amount of taking learner needs into account is important to make thr learning experience beneficial to the learner. What do you think? Do you do corporate training for just one place, or design and deliver it to different places?
