Train the Trainer

Two Day Course

Suitable For

All employees responsible for delivering training sessions both formal and informal. The workshop focuses on both workshop design and impact of the trainer. This course aims to take the mystery out of the design and delivery of delegate centred training and build confidence in all trainers.

This workshop is designed around the specific policy and paperwork of each client. Where a client has no existing policy, we will work with them to design a process that fits the needs of each individual organisation.Objectives

By the end of the course, delegates will be able to:

  • Describe the role of the trainer.
  • Identify the tools &: techniques of successful ‘stand & deliver’ training.
  • Understand & demonstrate the principles of workshop design.
