Since 1990, Mel Silberman’s classic book, Active Training, has
been a runaway best-seller for trainers at all levels and a popular
text for university level courses in adult education and training.
The active training method—which turns the spotlight away from the
instructor and put the emphasis on the learner—has emerged over
time as a proven and reliable method for enhancing involvement,
learning, and change.
The third edition of Active Training, provides a thorough
introduction to the core principles of active training design and
delivery and includes a wealth of examples, tips, and techniques.
The book has been revised to reflect the latest trends in workforce
training and key sections, such as assessment and evaluation, have
been thoroughly updated. In addition, a completely new chapter has
been included to cover the design of active training for e-learning
and online applications.
