We all want to grow and achieve throughout our working lives. How can we provide these opportunities?

There are 3 ways we can access learning opportunities…

1. Formal learning:

   • Classroom-based learning

   • Books, articles and white papers

   • eLearning (online learning)

2. Informal learning:

   • Professional networks

   • Coaching and mentoring

   • 1-on-1 meetings with your manager

   • Feedback from around you

3. Experiential:

   1. Learning while doing your everyday work

   2. Working on tasks and problems

   3. On the job experience

Where do we learn the most? On the job (experiential)! So what can you do to provide these experiences?

Provide challenging projects on the job…

• Leading new projects

• Increasing job scope

• Opportunities to reflect and correct

• Providing secondment opportunities

Remember: 3 ways to provide learning opportunities…

• Formal learning: 10% of time

• Informal learning: 20% of time

• On-the-job learning: 70% of time

This is the 70:20:10 learning model for people development.
