Learning by doing. We say that phrase all of the time but what does it really mean? Do you really learn best when you are part of the learning process rather than watching a video or listening to a lecture or reading an instruction manual. YES. The answer is a resounding yes. Many experts agree on this but I've seen it first hand, in a purely anecdotal way. John Dewey (born October 20, 1859, Burlington, Vermont, U.S.—died June 1, 1952, New York, New York) was considered the Father of Educational Philosophy. His 4 Principles: 🌱Learning by doing or experiential learning. 🌱Discussion. 🌱Interactive. 🌱Interdisciplinary. Learning by experience. Learners should be actively involved in their own learning. Education is life itself. In many ways, a teacher or instructor is a facilitator. At Quality PC Training, we believe that learners should be part of the process. A big part. The concepts our learners retain after taking a training session with us is our WHY. Not to show off how much we know. We could lecture all day (lol). Sometimes when I am working with a group of adult learners, they tell me that they need me to "come back to the office with them." I usually laugh and then I tell them something like what Glinda the Good Witch says to Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz - "You've always had the power, my dear." The biggest takeaway from experiencing a training session with us is that the learner feels empowered, not dependent on the teacher. They can take what they've learned back to the office and use those skills immediately. Learning by doing is what we teach so that our learners get the best experience and come back for more. #qpct #learning #computertraining #microsoft

What are the different types of CPD? Types of CPD learning includes a range of different learning methods. From formal training to self-directed study, different types of CPD are available for an individual to complete their Continuing Professional Development. The three main types of CPD are as follows: Structured CPD / Active Learning This typically involves interactive and participation-based study. Structured CPD includes attending training courses, workshops, seminars, conferences, online and e-learning course as well as CPD certified events and conferences. Reflective CPD / Passive Learning This form of CPD involves no participant-based interaction and is more passive and one directional. Examples of Reflective CPD can include reading relevant educational articles, podcasts & business case studies and industry learning updates. In some occasions, informal meetings can be applicable to Reflective CPD but the learning objectives must be made clear in an individual’s overall CPD plan. Self-Directed CPD / Unstructured Learning This type of CPD is considered for all unaccompanied and unstructured CPD activities. It covers the reading of documents, articles and publications; either in print or online. Reading relevant publications, books by leading experts, industry journals and trade magazines are all examples of #learning through self-directed #CPD.
