We offer all of our Train The Trainer Courses as live virtual training. This online option is extremely popular. Here's why:
[The tutor] is a wonderful trainer, the thought of giving a presentation and using a computer terrified me but she put my mind at ease straight away and was always willing to stay back and help me out in any way that I needed. I feel much more confident now in delivering a presentation.
This course covers all of the aspects and elements that are essential and important to delivering effective and engaging training.
I really enjoyed it and even though I have considerable presentation experience, I learned new information and ideas to improve my training delivery.
The facilitator for this course is knowledgeable and very engaging! Thanks so much for the opportunity to participate!
I would highly recommend Professional Development. I recently did the trainer, delivery and evaluation course... The course was very interesting and I learned a lot on completion of this course. I found [the trainer] very helpful, friendly and professional... 100% recommend Professional Development.
QQI Training Delivery and Evaluation is our most popular course. This is usually the course people mean when they refer to "Train the Trainer". It is very similar in content and style to the old Train The Trainer FETAC Level 6 award.
If you need a Train the Trainer certification, this is where almost everyone begins.
During this workshop, we focus on training delivery skills and teach you how to assess the effectiveness of training with evaluation methods. You can read a detailed outline of what is covered during this course by downloading our Training Delivery and Evaluation brochure, but here's a high-level overview of what you'll learn:
