Notes
1. Training where participants attend a training institution, or other organized training opportunity with an instructor or
leader (e.g. in-class, workshop, seminar).
2. Training delivered via the internet (e.g. eLearning).
3. Informal interactions/activities where participant receives one-on-one knowledge transfer, either in-person or over the
phone, from an expert/trainer/professional.

on-one training (e.g. field demonstration, field tour).
5. Supervised on-the-job training assignment designed to give students the skills and knowledge required for entry into a
trade/profession over a defined period.
6. Participants attend a large scale exposition off-site specifically as a knowledge transfer/training opportunity, as opposed
to a sales or marketing opportunity.
7. Interactions/activities where peers learn from and with each other in both formal and informal ways.
