Train The Trainer Training

5-Day Intensive

Course Overview

A comprehensive programme that will help you develop from a 20 th Century trainer to a 21 st Century facilitator

Why should you attend?

The days of “chalk and talk” are long gone and trainers must now adapt their style of delivery to programmes that reflect the way adults learn best. It is now clearly understood that:

•  Adults need to know why they need to learn something.

•  Adults need to learn experientially.

•  Adults approach learning as problem solving.

•  Adults learn best when the topic is of immediate value.

This five-day programme provides the tools to plan, develop and deliver training programmes that create a positive learning environment and ensure embedded learning is the key outcome.

This programme has been designed to appeal to all trainers – those that do training as part of a wider role and those that train on a full time basis. The content will help you to develop a wider range of skills, thereby making you a more effective facilitator, so that you can fully meet the needs of the modern adult trainee.

Who Is The Course For?
