NOTE: We strongly recommend completing HybriLearn’s The Practical Trainer workshop before taking this course.

Behind every spectacular training session is a lot of preparation and meticulous attention to detail. A truly skilled trainer can make a programme exciting. Learners will have fun while they are learning if the facilitator can involve their emotions and minds.

This three-day Advanced Skills for the Practical Trainer course offers instruction that will allow trainers to have maximum impact on their students’ learning.

Students will understand programme design challenges, changing points of view, and customisation tips. They will also look at competencies for trainers, how to make adjustments for different learning styles, and challenging training situations. Forms and tools are included to help implement four levels of evaluation. Students will also prepare and present their own training demonstrations.

With Advanced Skills for the Practical Trainer, you have access to all the tools that a trainer needs. These tools include trainer and student guides, detailed activities, icebreakers and energisers, recommended reading lists, and more. You can even combine classroom training with eLearning elements to offer a blended learning option that mobile learners love.
