Waar vindt de incompany training De leercyclus van Kolb plaats?
Wherever suits you: at your office, at one of our training locations or online. You also choose the date.
Can the content be tailored to our organisation?
Yes. Before the course we discuss with you what the group can already do, where things go wrong in practice and what should be different afterwards. The trainer uses examples and exercises from your own work.
How large can the group be?
That depends on the course. For a skills course we prefer to work with a small group, so that everyone can really practise. If more people are involved, we schedule several groups or set up a fixed programme.
Wat kost De leercyclus van Kolb incompany?
Je krijgt een vaste prijs voor de hele groep, in een offerte op maat. Met een groep is dat voordeliger dan iedereen los inschrijven.
Can the course be delivered in English?
Yes. For in-company courses we deliver the training in the language of your choice, Dutch or English. Mention it in your request.
Do participants receive a certificate?
Yes, every participant receives a certificate of attendance afterwards.
How do I request a quote?
Via the quote form: state the course, the number of participants and roughly where and when you would like it. An adviser will then contact you.
What does Kolb's learning cycle involve?
Kolb's learning cycle describes learning as a continuous process with four phases: experience, reflection, conceptualisation and experimentation. The American psychologist David Kolb demonstrated that everyone learns in their own way. By working through all four phases, you get the maximum learning results out of a learning process. In this workshop you discover how to apply this model in practice.
How long does the Kolb's Learning Cycle workshop last?
The Kolb's Learning Cycle workshop takes one day. During this course day, the trainer covers Kolb's theory using compelling practical examples and you actively work with the four learning phases: experience, reflection, conceptualisation and experimentation. Afterwards, you will have more insight into your own learning process and that of others, resulting in better learning outcomes.
Who is the Kolb's Learning Cycle workshop suitable for?
The workshop is particularly suitable for trainers, educators, teachers and HR professionals who want to enrich their teaching skills. Are you involved in designing or facilitating learning processes? Then you will gain concrete tools for applying Kolb's four learning phases (experience, reflection, conceptualisation and experimentation) and increasing the learning results of your participants.
Do you receive a certificate after the Kolb's Learning Cycle workshop?
Yes, after the Kolb's Learning Cycle workshop you receive a certificate of attendance from Learnit. This certificate shows that you have taken the workshop and deepened your knowledge of Kolb's learning model and the four learning stages: experience, reflection, conceptualisation and experimentation. Useful for your personal development plan or portfolio.
What are Kolb's four learning styles?
Kolb distinguishes four learning phases that also form four learning styles: experience (concrete experiencing), reflection (observing and reflecting), conceptualisation (analysing and theorising) and experimentation (actively trying things out). Everyone has their own preference, but only by working through the entire cycle do you achieve maximum learning results. In this workshop you discover which style suits you and how to strengthen the other phases.
Can you take the Kolb's Learning Cycle workshop in-company?
Yes, the Kolb's Learning Cycle workshop is also available in-company. You then receive a tailored course for your own team or organisation, at a location of your choosing. The content is geared to your practical situation, so that Kolb's theory ties in directly with the learning issues within your organisation. Request a quote via the course page.
What is the difference between the workshop on Kolb and a train-the-trainer programme?
A train-the-trainer programme covers the full craft of training: presenting, programme design, group dynamics, teaching methods and evaluation. Such programmes usually take several days or weeks. The Kolb's Learning Cycle workshop focuses on one specific model within the learning process: Kolb's four phases (experience, reflection, conceptualisation and experimentation) and the associated learning styles. You go into depth on this single model and practise applying it in real-life situations. Choose this workshop if you already train or teach and want to enrich your teaching repertoire with a solid theoretical foundation. Choose a broader train-the-trainer course if you have little experience in designing and delivering training.
How does Kolb's learning cycle relate to other learning theories such as those of Bloom or Honey and Mumford?
Kolb focuses on the process of learning through four phases: experience, reflection, conceptualisation and experimentation. Honey and Mumford build directly on this. They translated Kolb's four phases into four learning styles (activist, reflector, theorist and pragmatist) and developed a questionnaire to determine your preferred style. Bloom works at a different level: his taxonomy describes cognitive levels of learning, from remembering to creating, and is mainly useful when formulating learning objectives. In the workshop, Kolb takes centre stage as a process model. You learn how to go through the entire cycle in order to achieve maximum learning yield. If you want to build a training programme around measurable learning objectives, Bloom is a logical addition. If you want to map out individual learning styles, Honey and Mumford is the obvious choice.
