In this post we\u2019ll look at the essentials for any Train the Trainer course or programme. What should be included, how and why\u2026<\/p>\n

Why bother with a Train the Trainer?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Many people think that anybody can be a Trainer, it\u2019s just a matter of getting up there and doing it. Of course, that\u2019s not the case. It\u2019s a profession, just like any other, and requires a specific set of skills, knowledge and behaviours that aren\u2019t within reach of just anybody.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s well accepted that providing on-going development to employees is part of the path towards higher engagement.<\/p>\n

We also know that the higher the levels of engagement, in an organisation, the more productive employees are. If they\u2019re more productive then they are helping the organisation to be more profitable. Wins everywhere\u2026.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not a gigantic leap to suggest that the better the Trainers are that manage employee development (either internal or outsourced), the quicker the path to success for all and with a much greater quality to boot.<\/p>\n

So, what should be included in a TRAIN THE TRAINER COURSE<\/a>?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

The first thing you should do is make sure you\u2019ve got the right people on the Train the Trainer course. As we\u2019ve already said, not everybody has what it takes to support the development of others in an engaging, effective way.<\/p>\n

Some of the great subject matter experts in their respective fields don\u2019t have what it takes to transfer their expertise to others. We can teach them, they\u2019ll improve, but if it\u2019s not who they are, it\u2019s not who they are.<\/h6>\n

Once we\u2019ve got our group of; passionate, articulate, energetic, inspiring, knowledgeable, challenging, courageous, flexible, empathetic, creative, patient enablers of learning on the Train the Trainer we need to give them some content to get their teeth into.<\/p>\n

A quick internet search will provide many examples of this and all should include:<\/h5>\n
