If you’re committed to enhancing learning within your workplace our ‘Learning About Learning’ workshop is crucial for anyone involved in leadership, instructional design, training or coaching.

Join us for an enriching journey, diving deep into the natural learning process and mechanics of learning. This workshop draws on the expertise of Dr Bernice McCarthy, alongside the foundational research of renowned theorists like Jung, Piaget, Vygotsky, Dewey, Lewin, and David Kolb, the ‘father’ of experiential learning.

Discover the innovative ‘4MAT®’ system, a method refined by Dr McCarthy to meet diverse learning needs effectively and ensure everyone gains crucial insights, skills, and knowledge.

This globally recognised approach has been shaping exceptional learning experiences for over 40 years and comes to life in our workshop.

Benefit from the insights of LDN’s Melissa Williams who has worked directly one-on-one with Dr McCarthy and is one of only four experts worldwide awarded 4MAT® Master Certification.

Don’t miss this opportunity to transform your approach to learning and development.

Whether you’re managing designers and trainers, delivering content, or leading teams, this workshop will elevate your understanding and application of effective learning strategies, you can apply at work and at home.

How does the 1-day Learning About Learning workshop work?

Before the workshop, you’ll complete two short online diagnostic tools used by more than half a million people worldwide. These give you a personalised snapshot of how you prefer to learn, process information and make sense of new ideas. You’ll then use these insights throughout the workshop.

You’ll then learn:

  • How to make learning easier for yourself and those in your team, and achieve knowledge and skill transfer.

  • Why emotions and past experiences shape how you learn, and are key in creating relevance.

  • Simple ways to break down information so it is easy to understand and apply.

  • How to structure training sessions for maximum impact.

  • Practical ways to train, coach and verify competency while accommodating different learning preferences and confirming genuine understanding.

  • How to apply the 4MAT® system to instructional design, teamwork, coaching and leadership.
