TOOL 4: Transfer-oriented Feedback Forms
Benefit-oriented and learner-centered transfer feedback forms are used as an evaluation tool at the end of the training, with transfer success and business impact as the target outcomes.
TOOL 3: Pre-training meeting with a manager
Before attending a training measure, a pre-training meeting takes place between the participant and their manager, in which, for example, the benefits, goals and possible applications of what is to be learned are discussed.
TOOL 2: Create a management summary letter for supervisors
At the end of the training, trainees receive a management summary letter to give to their supervisor. The key messages in the letter are to inform the supervisor how they can benefit from the application of what has been learned and to encourage them to support implementation.
TOOL 1: Transfer planning exercise: F*ck it
