Description

Train-the-Trainer is an intensive 16-hour (2 day) program that prepares individuals responsible for training others to get their trainees to the desired level of competence in the shortest possible time. Participants learn how to apply a step-by-step framework to deliver on-the-job training that provides new learners with the necessary skills and knowledge to successfully execute job tasks. When using these strategies, trainers must take into consideration each trainee’s readiness to learn, baseline competency, preferred learning style, and motivation to learn, as well as possible barriers to learning. The program provides a comprehensive practicum in which each participant leads a mini training session that incorporates real-life scenarios to ensure that training is relatable and actionable. Each participant will receive a critique with valuable feedback to enhance their training skills as they relate to the specific content of their current job tasks.

Who Should Attend

This course is appropriate for any employee who is responsible for training others.
