Train the Trainer for Effective Workplace Learning

Subject experts are often asked to train others without ever learning how to teach. This programme gives new and occasional trainers the core skills to plan a session, engage a group and help adults learn. Delegates practise delivery and receive feedback throughout.

What you will be able to do

  • Explain how adults learn best in the workplace.
  • Plan a training session with clear objectives.
  • Deliver content in a clear and engaging way.
  • Use activities and questions to involve learners.
  • Manage groups and handle difficult moments.
  • Check that learning has actually taken place.
