ABSTRACT
The high impact learning that lasts (HILL) model is about the learning of young adults, professionals and experts. It is about the many possibilities to inspire and to support adults in their continuous learning and development (L&D) process, aiming to create value for the society of today and tomorrow. In the world of L&D, the fast-evolving and highly accessible knowledge should be a major asset. However, training programmes have for a remarkably long time stuck to the traditional learning paradigms. L&D professionals and teachers have a crucial role in supporting the learner in effectively dealing with such a massive stream of information, finding a way in the jungle of information technology and, most importantly, transforming information into knowledge. Results of learning are directly dependent upon the activities of the learners. Learners relate new information to what they already know and interpret it by starting from their own prior knowledge framework.
