Goal

The goal of this research project is to help you apply what you’ve learned about adult learning theory from your lessons. This assignment will provide you with an opportunity to explain the concept of adult learning theory and how it influences employee training.

Procedure

Write a two- to three-page research report (minimum of five paragraphs, 80–150 words each) that demonstrates your understanding of the following topic. Include relevant resource links, and explain your point of view thoroughly.

Topic

Explain the concept of Malcolm Knowles’ theory of adult learning and discuss its implications for a real-world employee training program.

Choose from one of the following corporate employee training programs, and use your own research skills. Briefly describe the organization’s training program and evaluate whether you believe the training program is successful based on adult learning theory parameters. Share evidence-based ideas for improving the training program.

Considerations

In your research paper, address the following factors:

  1. Does the training meet all five of the adult learning theory assumptions?
  2. If so, what elements of the training most closely align with Knowles’s theory?
  3. If not, what employee training elements are missing and what is the impact?
  4. What environmental, social, and cultural aspects influence training outcomes?
  5. How can the training be improved, given the way employees prefer to learn today?

Formatting

Type your submission, double-spaced, using either Times New Roman or another plain font, size 12. Use a standard document format with 1-inch margins. Your paper should be written in Microsoft Word or a Word-compatible program.
