Abstract: Abstract Several learning and training models have tried to explain the complex process of learning – one of them is the Learning Cycle of David A. Kolb. At the Center for Learning and Knowledge Management (ZLW) of RWTH Aachen University this model has been used as a didactical guideline for the consecutive training of university staff. Practical training experience showed that Kolb’s Learning Cycle has to be modified for the training of higher education teachers due to different requirements of diverse target groups and varying teaching and learning contents. Based on scientific critique and the practical training experience of the ZLW, several specifications for the development of a new training model have been derived and are implemented in an innovative training model for the qualification program in order to promote an improved learning process for university teaching staff of the RWTH Aachen University.
