- Apply near and far transfer principles
- Design for identical elements
- Create meaningful connections
- Support metacognitive development
- Build flexible knowledge structures
Authentic Learning Design
- Create realistic scenarios
- Design workplace-like practice
- Use authentic assessments
- Incorporate real problems
- Simulate actual conditions
Support System Design

- Create performance support tools
- Plan reinforcement strategies
- Develop manager involvement
- Build communities of practice
Transfer Climate
- Address organizational barriers
- Build supervisor support
- Create accountability systems
- Provide application opportunities
- Track transfer outcomes
