Adults learn differently than children and adolescents.Spectrum EEO Trainings leverage the principle of Adult Learning Theory.
Malcolm Knowles' adult learning theory (andragogy) emphasizes that adult learners prefer self-directed, practical learning that connects to their experiences and real-world applications. In the context of online EEO investigator training, this means creating a course that allows learners to set their own pace, apply previous knowledge, and engage with practical scenarios that mirror challenges they’ll face in investigations. The training should focus on problem-solving, such as conducting interviews and writing legally sound reports, while highlighting the importance of legal compliance and fairness. By aligning learning with professional goals, such as certification or career advancement, and showing the direct relevance of investigative skills to workplace dynamics, adult learners are more likely to stay motivated and successfully integrate new knowledge into their roles.
