Application Assignments

refer to assignments in which trainees are asked to identify work problems or situations and to apply training content to solve them

Curriculum Road Map

refers to a figure showing all of the courses in a curriculum, the paths that learners can take through it, and the sequences in which courses have to be completed

This helps trainees see connections among strategies that have been effective in different situations

Programs that emphasizes near transfer should include the following:

-trainees need to follow standardized procedures, processes and checklists -trainees should be given an explanation as to any differences between training and work tasks -trainees should be encouraged to focus only on important differences between training tasks (e.g., speed of completion) rather than unimportant differences (e.g., equipment with the same features but a different model). -trainees should be provided with an explanation of why as well as hoe the procedure should be performed to help them understand the concepts behind the procedure -behaviors or skills that trainees learn in the program should contribute to effective performance
