Slide 123
Discuss the learning process

Learner characteristics and learning styles:


 All learners are unique
 People have different learning
styles/preferences
 Training delivery should suit/reflect
these different learning
styles/preferences
 There is a need to get to know individual
learners and their different learning
styles/preferences and adapt delivery
to suit

Slide 124
