Sharon's grasp of adult learning concepts is outstanding! This 10-Minute Trainer book is an absolute goldmine of quick learning activities to apply in the classroom. I have been a trainer and instructor for almost 30 years and have always sought to have my classes or my training be student-centered. Sharon's exercises blend so smoothly into my classes with little effort on my part. They are fun, exciting and innovative and the learners love 'em. They don't take away from time in the classroom - they enhance the experience for the learners. I also love the explanations (in layman's terms) of research done on the brain and on adult learning in general. Really helps you understand the critical need to tap into your learners. As Plutarch says, "A mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be ignited." Thank You Sharon Bowman!

The Ten-Minute Trainer is just what you need. Written for the busy training professional, this practical, grab-it-and-go book will show you how to design and deliver effective training programs in less time and with increased learner retention.

This timely resource will also help you organize your training time so that your learners get the most from your instruction. With The Ten-Minute Trainer as your guide, you will be able to:

- Apply 2 powerful instructional tools—the Learning Compass and Training Map-to shorten your training design and delivery time
- Include 4 "Get a CLUE!" elements to increase motivation and memory
- Use 5 Power-Hour Training Templates to create a custom training session on any topic, for any size group, and any age learner
- Change your concept of training time as you use small but mighty seconds and minutes in creative, interesting, and memorable ways

Regardless of your time in the training position, this book is a MUST HAVE. If you are new to the position, there are quick tips and tricks to get you started on the path to active learning for your audience. If you are an experienced trainer, soak in the chapters on the "why" behind the activities. Sharon's approach is not only easy for the facilitator, but, more importantly, rewarding for the learners. Pay close attention to the variations on each of the techniques, and you will never run out of material. As a corporate trainer with an education degree, this book showed me exactly what I didn't know, as well as what my learners were missing out on! Enjoy! |
