Training Summary – Train the Trainer

This Train the Trainer programme is designed to help individuals who are not (or at least not yet) a professional trainer or those looking to brush up on their training skills. The focus is on those who have been asked to present or train a group of individuals; a task for which they may have little prior experience, or in a format they’re not used to (such as online delivery).

Delivering on the job training can be challenging for even the most skilled and experienced trainer, so our Train the Trainer programme is essential in providing the required tools and techniques to support successful delivery.

This highly interactive and engaging Train the Trainer course is ideal for Team Leaders, Supervisors, Managers, new trainers or existing trainers expanding their skillset.

Our professional, quality training expertly delivered with insightful context builds a solid foundation of knowledge needed to understand the various topics, techniques and tools.

Rather than “Death by PowerPoint” or skimming through material in an effort to lightly cover the most ground in the quickest time, our well-balanced training is interactive, engaging and thought provoking.

Why are Professional Trainers Important?

Training and development of staff is an essential component in ensuring morale, motivation and productivity remains high whilst simultaneously developing the key skills, behaviours and knowledge needed to drive organisations forward. Train the trainer allows for organisations to leverage in house cost efficiencies, exercising control over subject matter and the compounding of learnings through effective follow up to ensure these are applied in the long term. Professional trainers therefore are crucial, underpinning the success of training and development strategy and realisation of associated benefits.

    Train the Trainer Delivery

    There are two types of training delivery method we provide for our Train the Trainer Course; Live Online (Instructor Led) & Tailored Training.

    Live Online Train the Trainer

    Our Two Day Live Online Instructor Led training allows learners to access training wherever they are in the world. The training is conducted virtually, with an expert delivery coach who brings the training to life. Being virtual can be less intrusive and more flexible for learners, but still with the same benefits of interactivity, peer learning and insights and networking opportunities.

    This is most suitable for individuals or small groups of learners from a particular organisation.

    Tailored Train the Trainer

    Our tailored training can adopt on-site or virtual training allowing it to remain flexible, however it benefits most by being able to be tailored and relevant to a particular organisation and its needs. It is typically delivered over two days, to allow for this but also incorporate a more in depth exploration of concepts including value streams and managing change.

    Whether on-site, virtual or a blend of the two, our training programme will speak to the requirements of both the organisation and the specific group of learners. Training Programmes can be combined too, creating a truly adaptable and bespoke business solution.

    Ideal for larger groups (usually six or more) of learners from a particular organisation, whether on the same site or across multiple different sites.
