ABSTRACT
Before presenting some tips and guidelines, this chapter stresses that the high impact learning that lasts (HILL) model is based on research that has mostly been conducted in Western countries, meaning that some of the building blocks will not have a straightforward fit with Asian, African or South American cultures. This implies that for non-Western organisations, as well as for organisations working with employees from non-Western backgrounds, a careful reflection on how the proposed building blocks are experienced by their employees is necessary. Learner agency focuses on ownership of the learner over his/her own learning. There is substantial scientific evidence that collaborative learning is effective and therefore should be central in learning programmes. Active learning and knowledge sharing should go hand in hand: learning should become a process of linking practice to concepts through different iterations that is created and further deepened through discussions and/or collaboration.
