Key takeaways:
- Performance support is critical: Understanding that performance support isn't just about creating job aids or tools but developing a discipline that incorporates these tools into a learning ecosystem that supports work as it happens.
- Focus on the workflow: Start with a workflow analysis to understand the tasks and processes where performance support can be effectively integrated. This helps in designing learning that is not just informative but truly applicable.
- Apply over theory: Shift the focus from theoretical knowledge to real application. Learning should be anchored in real-life tasks and designed to support the actual application in the workplace, enhancing both learning and performance outcomes.
