KISS your PARTNER

Ok, I’ll admit that it’s a little cheesy for a title to a posting, but it really does say something very fundamental: when implementing a training program of any sort, a model like PARTNER is meant to keep the process simple and easy to manage. So Keep it Simple, Silly (I don’t really want to call anyone stupid, so I’ve substituted the more politically acceptable term Silly).

Experiencing success in the application of a training program is wonderful, but can that success be easily duplicated? Is the program easily transferrable? Can other learners benefit from the hard work that went into designing the program, and can other trainers benefit from being able to easily deliver on that work? PARTNER isn’t a magic bullet, it’s simply a process to help ensure that the development, delivery, follow-up, and evaluation of a training program has a good chance of success by applying  a simple, easy to follow process to create programs that are easily duplicated and easily transferrable.
