Did you know that, according to the Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve, we forget approximately 70% of new information within 24 hours if we don't back it up somehow. This poses a major challenge in driver training, where retaining crucial safety and compliance information is vital. We’ve applied this research to the design of our Professional Development Plan and Toolbox Talks. Here’s how we tackle the forgetting curve: ✔️ Bite-sized Learning - Our Toolbox Talks deliver information in small, manageable chunks, making it easier for drivers to absorb and retain key concepts ✔️ Regular Reinforcement - Each month, drivers receive new content that reinforces previously learned material, keeping essential knowledge fresh in their minds ✔️ Interactive Quizzes - Engaging quizzes at the end of each session test knowledge and reinforce learning, increasing the likelihood that drivers will remember what they’ve learned ✔️ Certificates of Completion - Earning a certificate provides a sense of accomplishment and serves as a motivational tool to revisit and apply learned concepts By leveraging the principles of the Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve, our Professional Development Plan ensures that your drivers are not only educated but also retain critical information for the long term.
