The Four Stages of Learning

STAGE 1:
UNCONSCIOUS INCOMPETENCE

Not only do you not know what to do, you have no experience of it either. An example that could be used is for a child, car driving is a mystery. They have no fear and no awareness of what they do not know.

STAGE 2:
CONSCIOUS INCOMPETENCE


Practising the skill takes all your concentration – it can be very uncomfortable. You have an awareness of what you should do/know, but you do not always succeed

STAGE 3:
CONSCIOUS COMPETENCE

You can do it, but it takes attention and concentration

STAGE 4:
UNCONSCIOUS COMPETENCE


The skills becomes almost a habit, you are able to be successful without concentration and your conscious mind is free to take on other things
