Learning is key to organizational growth and occurs through communication of experiences. There are ten laws of learning acquisition that outline how learning occurs, including having a clear philosophy, isolating learning needs, creating a conducive climate, using familiar language, relating new ideas to existing knowledge, and ensuring understanding through practice and application. Learning and development helps improve employee performance and the organization through reducing issues like turnover while being an investment with future returns. Common training methods include technology-based learning, on-the-job training, coaching/mentoring, lectures, and continuing professional development. It is important to train trainers so they can effectively deliver engaging sessions and have relevant, beneficial content for their audiences.
