Synopsis

Do you need to develop the skills to make you an effective trainer?

Do you want to be confident that you are meeting the training requirement?

Training is often thought of as being a single event, isolated from business needs - such thinking fails to see the whole picture. Training needs to be a systematic process which begins with analysing the training requirement in the context of business demands, and leads on to designing and delivering appropriate training solutions and evaluating the relevance of the learning to the organisational needs.

This course will introduce you to the training process, guide you through each stage and equip you with the skills to be effective trainers.
