Considerations
In your research paper, address the following factors:

1. Does the training meet all five of the adult learning theory assumptions?

2. If so, what elements of the training most closely align with Knowles’s theory?

3. If not, what employee training elements are missing and what is the impact?

4. What environmental, social, and cultural aspects influence training outcomes?

5. How can the training be improved, given the way employees prefer to learn today?
