Description

In this episode, Mike Hughes and Walt Bauer dive deep into the learning retention process and how most police training stalls out at Step 3—Working Memory Activation.

Highlights include:

  • The brain structures and chemicals that power retention
  • Why feedback, emotion, and sleep matter more than repetition
  • Tools and techniques to drive retrieval and application
  • What’s keeping most training stuck—and how to break through
