Adult Learning Theory and Relevance in Ergonomic Training Programs
Guest Author - Anne Asher

An effective ergonomics training program will be very targeted to that which employees and supervisors can use to solve their problems.

Using sharing and hands-on practice are also effective in adult learning situations.

Relevance, a core feature of adult learning theory, is based on the idea that adults will only learn what they are motivated to learn. (Hint, most of the time, people who are injured focus on one motivation – getting out of pain, while supervisors are concerned with containing costs.)
