Train the trainer (2 Day)

Programme Overview & Summary

Have you ever had to train someone to do part of their job? Do you need to train others in a new skill or process? Are you responsible for training new starters? If so, this 2-day workshop will help you learn and practice a range of skills that will enable you to deliver effective and engaging training.

Alongside input from the facilitator, you will be actively involved in taking part in group activities and discussions. An important feature of the course is the opportunity to practise training delivery skills and to receive feedback to develop your skills further so that you’re ready to apply these back in the workplace.

Style and Approach

Active participation from everyone across the 2 days is crucial. The morning sessions focus on a range of tools and techniques you can utilise to make sure you are keeping trainees engaged. The afternoons provide an opportunity for you to practice your newly acquired skills by delivering a short training session to the group.

Audience

This workshop is an essential starting point for non-training professionals who are required to deliver some training as part of their role.
