Telling Ain't Training

If you liked the book, you'll love this event!

Based on the award-winning book of the same name, this event offers an experiential approach to transforming “telling” into activities that result in long-term retention and behavior change. Despite the irreverent title, this event tackles universal and persistent questions: How do learners learn? Why do learners learn? How do you make sure that learning sticks?

The Telling Ain’t Training event shows you interactive, practical techniques that can be implemented
immediately to improve your training programs. You'll come away with solid answers, backed by research and real-world experience. Attendees will also receive a free copy of the Telling Ain't Training book.
