With: Karen Tidsall

The ability to train staff is one of the essential and perhaps most rewarding skills of a manager. This workshop will help you develop the ability and confidence to: prepare and design a workshop which meets the needs of the individual learners, work groups and the organisation as a whole; use a range of training approaches from directive to facilitative; use a range of learning styles and to co-facilitate. You will also have the opportunity to explore and practice essential training skills from facilitating group discussions, handling difficult behaviours, listening, observing and questioning techniques to creating a learning environment and ways to encourage participants to implement skills after the training event.

This course can be tailored to meet your specific needs and delivered in-house.

Comments from previous courses:

“I found doing a presentation very useful. I hadn’t had the opportunity to devise a session to present, and this helped me somewhat to overcome my fears. It helped me believe in my own self worth”

“I liked the group work and participation. Also the different learning/teaching styles and how to consider these when planning a session”

“I learnt what my own learning style is”

“I feel more confident and able to deliver own training. I feel much more excited about getting my mentor training going”

“I was very happy with Karen’s method of training, observing her training style helped me when I did my session. I will implement this in my role”
