The Tricks of the Trade

Train the Trainer

It is often more effective and credible, particularly during a period of change within an organisation, for line managers to train their teams or for individuals to train their peers. This course shows participants the key skills and strategies needed to develop and deliver effective training. This is a practical, hands-on workshop which covers:

• Understanding the difference between training and learning, between delivery and understanding
• Building rapport with groups and managing your environment
• Giving and receiving feedback constructively
• Practising the core skills: listening, observing, questioning and persuading
• Planning a balanced and effective learning experience
• Keeping the interest, curiosity and engagement of the group
• Evaluating what has and hasn’t been learnt
• Managing difficult situations and challenging trainees
