JBU trains crewmembers and business partners around the world, but even training delivered in English does not always translate clearly. Slang, idioms, humor, cultural references, and region-specific expressions can create unintended barriers for global learners. In this 45-minute session, we will explore practical ways to make training more global-ready, from the words we use in the classroom to the examples and activities we build into our courses.
Participants will learn how to: Spot language, expressions, and references that may not translate well Use clear, globally understandable English without losing personality Build examples and activities that work across cultures Apply a simple “global-ready” check when developing or facilitating training Through quick examples and “Would this translate?” activities, participants will practice turning familiar training language into communication that travels.
The goal isn’t to make training less engaging. It’s to make sure everyone gets the message.
Feedback is an important part of growth, development, and working effectively with others. This session will focus on the importance of feedback and explore how to approach giving it in a thoughtful and meaningful way.
What if a wrong answer doesn’t always mean someone doesn’t know the material? In this interactive session, we’ll look beyond the score and take a closer look at the questions behind it. Using real-world examples, we’ll explore what makes a good assessment question, why item validation matters, and how better questions can lead to better measurement, more confidence in the results, and ultimately better decisions.
