Completing this course is a pre-requisite for effective training delivery. 

Upon successful completion of the course, individuals are awarded B2 - Competent Trainer or B1 - Highly Competent trainer award as well as ILM Certification.

Cost of the course includes:- You will receive trainer support and guidance throughout. All handouts and course study guides are provided and upon satisfactory completion, ILM and Target Training certification. Refreshments and lunch are also included.

course agenda:

Day 1 - This day is about giving delegates the key elements that make highly effective trainers and covers:

The principles of training. In this session, we review the approaches to learning and development and how these are implemented in the workplace. 

Describe behavioural personality using the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) in a training context. Delegates get to identify their own behavioural personality.

Skills needed by trainers. We identify the skills needed by highly effective trainers to train others using the OPEN UP methodology.

We provide an overview of an effective training structure. Key elements are explained such as aim, objectives and learning outcomes that will aid delegates to create a correct training framework.

Engagement techniques. We explain and demonstrate the ‘Throw the Monkey’ technique which engages delegates and provides trainers with opportunities to reflect and think in the dynamic environment. 

Describe effective questioning skills and answering techniques. Vital for effective training delivery; in this session, techniques are taught and practised to a high standard. This includes the use of open, pose, pause & pounce techniques and rhetorical questioning. Furthermore, advanced 4-part reasoning techniques are explained, demonstrated and practised.

Practise delivery using skills and techniques taught. A key element of this course is giving delegates the opportunity to practise what has been taught.  This will improve confidence and reinforce the need for effective training skills.  

Day 2- This day is about reinforcing what we learnt on day 1 and putting into practice the skills taught. By the end of the session, delegate training skills will have improved significantly:  

What was learnt yesterday? We consolidate the key skills learnt yesterday as a group activity using lesson delivery skills.

Dealing with nerves. This session looks at understanding why we get nervous and how to deal with nerves effectively including what is going on in our brains and how to create positive habits. Confidence and awareness will improve.

Use of visual aids. PowerPoint can be your best friend or your worst enemy. In this session, we explore what poor use of PowerPoint is like and offer some key tips to ensure it is used effectively. The use of the flipchart and whiteboard is also discussed with some key tips for using correctly.

Managing behaviour. Poor delegate behaviour can cause massive problems and this session is all about how to manage typical negative behaviours in a training session. Skills and techniques are demonstrated and discussed.

Evaluating training. We explain how to evaluate training to ensure it is working. Reference is made to the Kirkpatrick model of evaluation to ensure training is evaluated during and after the training process.

Assessed Sessions. Delegates are assessed delivering a training session against the agreed ILM standards. Upon successful completion individuals are awarded either B2 - Competent Trainer or B1 - Highly Competent trainer award as well as ILM Certification.

testimonials from clients who have completed this course:

★★★★★ "Our group was a full course and we all got on superbly well! Ralph’s approach was personable, patient and engaging. Nothing was too much trouble for him. As well as group feedback, we had the opportunity for one to one feedback too which was hugely beneficial. Although I had someexperience of facilitating training, I learnt skills that I will carry with me for the rest of my career." Caroline Day, One Medical Group.

★★★★★ "After the course had ended, I delivered a training session which received excellentfeedback – something I attribute to the new skills I learned on the PTT course. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this course to colleagues and when I need further training, Target Training will be my first port of call. it was definitely the best training course I’ve ever been on!" Ruth Hawke, SYHA.

★★★★★ "Last week’s course was by far the best I have ever been on. I suppose before the start I had a feeling it was going to be like the PTTLS course we did, oh how I was wrong. I am so looking forward to putting into place the powerful skills you have taught me and for that I would like to thank you so very much." David Frodsham, Greenergy
