Presentation
Training is a profession in its own right. Sharing knowledge and practical expertise requires mastery of specific teaching methods and techniques.
It also means adopting the right approach, connecting with every participant and creating positive group dynamics. Trainers must both master their subject and focus on learners, enabling each person to progress according to their abilities and potential.
This course introduces participants to the full scope of a trainer's work: from designing training programmes and learning content to facilitating sessions and evaluating activities and learning outcomes. The methods used give trainee trainers a practical framework for every stage of a course.
