"I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand." — Confucius

The value of experience as a tool in the creation of knowledge was seen as early as the 4th century B.C. when Aristotle stated, " Using the language of knowledge is no proof that one possess it."

The Training AdvantEdge has found that simply attending a workshop is not enough for learning to occur. We believe that learners must do something during the process of acquiring new knowledge in order for the experience to be useful.

Based on this philosophy, we have created our own experientially-based E.D.G.E. learning model.

Get the edge with E.D.G.E.

For any experience to truly be beneficial, it needs to encompass four elements:

1. EXPERIENCE: Exposure to a workplace issue
2. DISCUSS: Reflect on resolving the issue
3. GENERALIZE: Compare it to past experiences
4. EXECUTE: Align your actions with your new perspective

We view every workshop as a "learning journey." Without the integration of these four elements, learning will not occur.
