Abstract

Abstract The authors surveyed 371 personnel trainers, asking them to recall training delivery problems or difficulties they had experienced as novices. The analysis of their 1,098 responses led us to conclude that novice trainers faced twelve common training delivery problems. Twenty expert trainers were subsequently surveyed and asked to report their successful strategies for dealing with each of the problems. The analysis of their responses concludes with expert advice on how to deal with the twelve common training delivery problems.
