Why would you need expert training?
Expertise produces better training results. Internally-appointed trainers often lack expertise in training or in the
subject matter. Our expertise is academically-founded and our method is based on a proper combination of instructional design,
game design, and subject matter expertise.
Why should you consider experiential training?
Classroom learning often produces knowledge that can be recalled when tested but not applied in practical situations.
And knowledge that is not exercised is quickly forgotten. Experiential learning encourages trainees to apply their knowledge
and thereby better integrate the new learning into actionable understanding. And it's more enjoyable,
which aids learning and retention.
Why do most experiential activities fail?
Experiences may feel good but teach nothing. Whilst participants may report that they both had fun and learnt something,
temporary "feel-good" effects lead to unreliable self-reports. Most experiential activities are so abstract that they teach
nothing of use in the real world; worse, they may train the wrong responses (negative training). Consequence Consulting &
Training uses proper instructional design to guarantee positive training.
What sort of experiential activities should you avoid?
Unfocused and vague activities are unfortunately the most common: self-discovery hikes, rope courses, outward-bound adventures,
find-your-own-meaning field trips, self-appointed executive coaches, motivational speakers, self-help cheerleaders, and rah-rah
social activities. Consequence Consulting & Training specializes in targeted and tailored training.
What sort of experiential activities should you prefer?
Well-designed, data-driven, and outcome-focused training simulates the situation, challenges the trainee, helps the trainee
achieve the learning objectives, and produces performance data. In other words, it simulates, stimulates, educates, and explicates.
Why should you choose Consequence Consulting & Training?
Consequence supplies training that is research-based and results-driven. Consequence's instructional designers and instructors
are all academics with years of prior experience designing training products for academia and government.
