Train the Trainer
Introduction
To be an effective trainer requires a special balance of skills. On the one hand the trainer needs to have enough charisma to make their subject interesting and compelling. On the other hand, focussing on the students' ability to learn and apply the subject matter is more important than the trainer's 'performance'.
Our training course focuses on the content and structure of the training; communication - the ability to communicate that content, and flexibility - the ability to adapt the style of delivery to suit different groups, personalities and environments.
