title: Successful educational programming: increasing learner motivation through involvement.
abstract: Requiring attendance at staff development activities does not insure that staff members will be motivated to learn or to use the skills and information being taught. Such motivation can be increased by asking a representative sample of prospective learners to help determine program content.
