Implementing competency based LEARNING

• People learn from their experiences.• The 70-20-10 model for learning design

recognizes and leverages the way we really learn. – 70% – application, doing it, stretch goals– 20% – coaching, peers– 10% – classroom / formal

• Organizations report people learn more, better, faster when 70-20-10 is applied. And they report up to a 75% reduction in their training spend!
