Learning never ends, and this is especially true if you are a learning and development leader. The hiring manager wants to hear that you have a passion for learning yourself and don't just appreciate it from afar. Describe a recent training class you attended or the last learning module you took. Highlight the key takeaways and your opinion of training elements such as the delivery, content, etc.

"Last year, I started taking online classes in organizational development at a university. I took a few human resource development classes in college. Still, after a few leadership roles in an enterprise setting, I really felt motivated to learn the science about how humans behave in different types of organizations. All of the classes were conducted synchronously, giving the lecturer a chance to engage with the learners and answer questions in real-time. Further, there were no exams or quizzes other than the final exam, which came in the form of a case study. I am more than satisfied with the content, which is well balanced between theory and practical application. My key takeaways were the various organizational frameworks that we explored and utilized in our case studies. The delivery was fine because of the nature of the subject. However, I do think that delivering it asynchronously by making the courses available on-demand would have made it accessible to more professionals."
