The Practical Trainer
$240.00Part of knowing where you are going is defining what you are doing. Training can mean different things to different people: a trainee has needs, your supervisor has expectations, and as trainers, you have objectives. The assumption that anyone who can do a job can teach another person how to do it has led to countless errors in the instruction process. Many of us have been either a victim of or a witness to this misguided belief. Trainees are most engaged by a trainer who: Has some experience to share Has something of value to offer Can provide some real examples and give them some tips Lets participants talk and share their experiences with others Throughout this course, we take a closer look at how to approach teaching individuals with an affinity for any learning style.
