Adults learn differently than children and adolescents.Spectrum EEO Trainings leverage the principle of Adult Learning Theory.
Malcolm Knowles initially developed the adult learning theory in 1968, with six key points or assumptions.
Adult learning theory, also known as andragogy, is the concept of learning in adults and how it differs from that of children’s learning patterns. The theory is based on the idea that adult learning is highly distinct from the learning that humans do as children. It also emphasizes the determination of suitable learning techniques for adults.
