Effective training hinges on clear and functional feedback. Decades of research on adult learning has exposed several core truths to how we acquire and retain new skills. This workshop will look at these lessons through the lens of coaching staff, with an emphasis on training related to high impact skills. We’ll break down coaching through a series of activities that will give attendees the chance to practice and analysis coaching around topics like communication skills, cognitive behavior intervention, and situational control. Attendees should be prepared to participate in fast-paced group activities with live feedback. By the end of the session, students will be prepared to apply these skills at their home agencies.
