InfuseMed Co-Founder and CEO Steve Deverall was recently featured in Training Industry with a new article exploring an important challenge in professional education: knowing something does not always mean being able to do it when it matters.
In “From Knowing to Doing: How Immersive Medical Training Can Help Turn Knowledge Into Behavior,” Steve looks at the gap between knowledge and performance and how immersive learning can help learners move beyond simply understanding information to practicing how they will use it.
Moving Beyond Knowledge Transfer
Traditional training can be effective at delivering information, but real-world performance often requires more. Learners need opportunities to make decisions, respond to realistic situations and become comfortable applying what they know.
Immersive training creates an environment where people can practice those moments before they encounter them in the field.
Rather than asking whether a learner completed a course or remembered the material, the more meaningful question becomes: Can they apply what they learned when the situation calls for it?
Creating Opportunities to Practice
Immersive learning can help bridge that gap by giving learners the opportunity to experience realistic scenarios, repeat important actions and build familiarity with situations they may eventually face on the job.
For medical and healthcare training, that can be particularly valuable. Complex procedures, technologies and clinical situations often require more than information alone. Learners benefit from being able to practice how knowledge translates into action.
As Steve explains in the article, the goal is not simply to make training more engaging. It is to create learning experiences that better prepare people to perform.
From Knowing to Doing
The article explores how immersive medical training can help organizations think differently about what successful learning looks like.
Instead of stopping at knowledge transfer, training can help learners build confidence, familiarity and the ability to respond in realistic situations.
