Webinar - So You're a Training Officer - Now What? Incorporating Adult Learning Theory into FD Training Programs

Congratulations, you’re a training officer! But…how to do you teach adult learners? When we think of the science of how humans learn, we often think of children (i.e., pedagogy). However, there are learning theories unique to adults: how people learn in formal and informal ways once they are over 18. Many training officers (in all industries) find themselves in the role of educator with little to no background knowledge of andragogy (the science of adult learning). Understanding more about andragogy can help you further build your skillset as a fire department trainer and reinforce techniques you’re already using.
