“Thanks for your inquiry of NTL Institute. We are happy to respond to your inquiry about The Learning

Pyramid.

Yes, we believe it to be accurate - but no, we no longer have - nor can we find - the original research that supports the numbers. We get many inquiries every

month about this -

and

many, many people have searched for the original research and have come up empty handed. -http://homepages.gold.ac.uk/polovina/learnpyramid/about.htm
