Accelerated Expertise Training

Accelerated Expertise is 'taking the concept of skill development to the limit'.

1. Identify the domain Experts
   • In-depth interviews
   • Professional certificates, licensing, etc
   • Performance at similar tasks
   • Ask a groups of practitioners who is a master at what.
2. Extract expertise thru Cognitive Task Analysis
3. Build case library of difficult cases - include the difficultly level in the cases.
4. Make training simulations from the difficult cases
5. 2 types of training programs
   1. Do Sense Making by themselves - introspect/reflect by themselves
   2. Get feedback from an expert
6. Concepts/principles shown in the training should be emphasized thru the simulation
7. Test - run the simulations with your learners
8. Feedback system during simulations - let learners compare their answers to experts answers.

The theories used to create this process are...

• Cognitive Flexibility Theory
• Cognitive Transformation Theory
