Mr. Pedra holds a certificate as an “Accelerated Learning Facilitator” awarded to him by the Center for Accelerated Learning after completing the “Accelerated Learning Training Methods” program in Phoenix, Arizona in December of 2007. The program was facilitated by Dave Meier, the world leader in accelerated learning training and the author of “The Accelerated Learning Handbook”, an international best seller in the training industry.

The program Mr. Pedra attended was a Master Class on how leaning facilitators can:
- Reduce design time by up 75% and more.
- Greatly speed and enhance learning.
- Have more fun and success in their work.
- Lead the learning revolution in their organizations.
Based on the latest in learning research and practice, here are some of the main principles of the accelerated learning approach:
- Learning involves the whole self, brain and body.
- Learning is creating knowledge, not consuming information.
- Only what learners create within themselves is learned.
- Collaboration among learners greatly improves learning.
- The best learning comes from doing the work itself, with constant feedback and refinement.
- Learning is best when the whole organization is the classroom and everyone in it is a teacher and a learner simultaneously.
- Positive feelings of enjoyment and total personal involvement greatly enhance the learning process.
- Learning is the constant enhancement and re-creation of self. The key to a long happy and productive life is this: never stop learning.
Several meetings were attended with Prof. Meier; hence, cooperation agreements were taken in regard to producing a TV program and establishing the Dubai Accelerated Learning Center.
