Human Connection + Engagement = Increased Learning

We mentioned in our last two blog posts that we found three key reasons why live, instructor-led training is superior to content-based, self-learning. In this third post, we highlight how active learners and live instructors make a difference in training experiences.

The third reason live instructors are preferred is because human connection increases learning.

Live instructors stimulate idea sharing, discussions, and healthy competition among participants.

When knowledge is gained actively vs. passively, 87% of learners will engage with the course content and interact with their fellow learners.

Live learning helps students focus, better understand the material, gain practice, receive guidance and feedback, and retain more of what they've learned.

Learning via simulated experiences live with other students and instructors deeply enhance workplace interactions, such as noticing emotions, receiving feedback, and healthy responses during times of conflict.

Only 4% of content-based learners are engaged.

Do you recall the pilot scenario from part one of this blog series?

Imagine, a future pilot's training experience in a flight simulator with a live instructor helping guide how to fly a plane. When the pilot in training gets into an actual plane they will much better understand how to handle the controls and the requirements to take flight safely, than if they had just passively read a book or watched a video about flying.
Live, instructor-led training utilizing simulation technology as part of the workshop provides the most realistic learning immersion quickly, without any real risk.

Which type of training would you prefer your team had before stepping out on the "runway" of your business?

Every Fuse workshop is instructor-led, in real-time by our accredited instructors. Some of our workshops use AI technology to simulate months of workplace experience in the matter of a few training hours. We provide immersive learning environments virtually, in-person, or outdoors. We work with a wide variety of organizations across the U.S. to enhance their team and leadership communication skills, which improves productivity and business outcomes.

“It's amazing how much we accomplished and were able to take away from our virtual session. Everyone came out much more persuasive than when they went in. Your content, as well as your training and facilitating methods, are very effective and right on point.
