It’s time to chase out the cobwebs, dust things off! Spring is in the air. I like to call it “ Spring Training ”

L et me ask you; Do we quit learning because you get old? Or do we get old because you quit learning? Learning doesn’t end when you graduate, it only just begins. Some of the most desired skills in the workplace today are technical skills like Microsoft Excel, Word and PowerPoint. Employers are also looking for people with Leadership skills, people with the ability to communicate and work well in teams are highly sought after. And every business need people with Excellent Customer Service skills. Adults don’t quit learning intentionally; they just fill their days with stuff. If you want to learn new things, you have to carve out time to learn and practice every day with a series of baby steps those things that you want to achieve. “An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest.” – Benjamin Franklin

Sharpening skills or learning new skills requires knowing how Adult Learners learn. At Soul Canyon we know a few things that can help you get to and stay on top of your game. “Learning is more effective when it is an active rather than a passive process” - Euripides
