14. POST INSTRUCTOR DEVELOPMENT INSTITUTE In Summary • POST has made a commitment to provide the instructional cadre with the training required to more effectively meet the training needs of the future • Training is an important and expensive endeavor- enhancing the skills of the cadre will ensure the student is receiving the best training possible • Too often training has been about efficiency over effectiveness . . . the training models being employed in IDI are about learning rather than merely presenting material • The proper application of adult, experience-based learning techniques cannot be successfully accomplished without first having a competently trained cadre • The ultimate goal of this program is to ensure every instructor has the tools and skills required to professionally deliver effective training . . . nothing else is acceptable
