A lot has happened in the training field in the last 10 years since the previous edition of Active Training was written.  This new 4th edition adds sections to comprehensively cover new learning technologies and applications, addresses the evolving role of trainers, tackles new business realities and challenges, and offers best practices for new trainer tasks, skills, and knowledge.  Revisions include updated workplace examples, new and revised templates and worksheets, updated theory and research sections, and expanded guidelines on evaluating and training ROI, extending the value of training programs, and managing Active Training programs to show state-of-the art applications.  An instructor support package includes chapter teaching overviews, learning activities, and sample syllabi.
