Long story short:The average human attention span is about eight seconds —that’s shorter than the attention span of a goldfish! That’s sensational! That’s amazing … that’s misleading, like a vacuous, attention-grabbing headline:
One source found that about 50% of learning is lost in less than one month, with employees reverting to their original behavior. Training should be an ongoing component of your organization, so much so that it transforms from “training” to become part of your everyday culture.
The keyword here is “high quality”. When it comes to training, learners can—and will—sit through lengthy training with high production values or high interest levels. In the eLearning world this usually means lots of visuals, interactive elements, an appealing tone and style, and a polished presentation. High interest levels might be harder to come by!
Shorter is usually better, sure, but there are plenty of jobs and processes out there that simply need more. Identifying your requirements and then applying the lessons discussed in this article will help your training be the best fit for your employees—and make your training more than white noise.
Once a week, a 150-minute class session (usually in the evening) is held.
, 50 minutes three times a week, an hour and 15 minutes twice a week or 2 and half hours a week with , more or less, so you are in class approximately a 150 minutes a week for a class on semester academic calendar and the class carries 3 hours of college credit.
A quarter can be as short as 5 and half weeks. * weeks or 6 weeks. Geology filed camp was 6 weeks long and it was all day everyday, but the fild days and the driving around days were alternated. Not every university offers their own geology filed camp. Tulane dos NOT, but geology field camp IS a requirement to graduate with B.S. in geology, earth scince or or environmental scince. The Grand Canyonh summer course does N OT count as geology fild camp.. Summer terms can can be 8 weeks, 6 weeks or 9 weeks and you are may or may not be in class five days a week for more than 50 minutes. it's not unusual for classes to go a over time, and on rare occasions, may end early if the teacher has covered the material. IF you have to leave because you have another class, it is acceptable to just get up and leave as long as you don't disturb the class.
There are many different class lengths, usually determined by how often the class meets. Here’s a good rule of thumb:

A normal three-semester credit-hour course involves three hours of teaching per week, which is generally 150 minutes (plus 2–3 times as much time for assignments and self-study). These 150 minutes of training might be organized as follows:
Depends, , usually on how many times a week that class meets. , 50 minutes three times a week, an hour and 15 minutes twice a week or 2 and half hours a week with , more or less, so you are in class approximately a 150 minutes ...
As a rule of thumb, in an hour of training, I aim to cover 2-3 “big” topics including presentation, reflection (discussion or interaction), and application. The advantage of thinking about scope is that you can take a training request that comes in as a list of topics and put together a rough estimate of how many hours the total project will take.
In my experience, an hour of ILT training material consists of about 20-40 slides depending on the amount of presentation, discussion, and activities. Virtual ILT tends to have more slides (or more animation on the slides) so that something visual is happening about every 10-15 seconds. In this respect, it is more comparable to eLearning Level 1.
I refer to the eLearning levels as 1 for low interactivity, 2 for moderate interactivity, and 3 for high interactivity, like it is done in the Chapman report.
You must complete at least 45 – 48 hours of class time in one semester. This averages about 3 hours of classroom time per week for the full 16-week semester. Generally speaking, one class is about 3 credit hours. This applies only to credit hours for classroom lectures. Laboratory, fieldwork, and internship credit hours are calculated differently.
One credit hour is equal to 15 to 16 hours of instruction. Your credit hours are calculated over the full semester, which is generally 16 weeks. Most lecture and seminar courses are worth 3 credit hours. You must complete at least 45 – 48 hours of class time in one semester.
