Train the Trainer Workshop

Transform dull presentations into lively workshops that develop real skills and lasting knowledge

A confidence-builder for subject matter experts, beginners and experienced trainers who want to refresh their skills

What makes Skillset's training for trainers different?

  • Some of the most experienced trainers in New Zealand. (We have trained in six countries - five of them regularly)
  • Real training, not passive seminars (We want to model effective training and build your skills.)
  • Plenty of opportunities to try new ideas
  • Individual feedback    
  • A new focus to training – methods, not just tips
  • We'll show your trainers how to make learning memorable – and fun

Now, the big differences...

1. We offer you a huge range of experience. 

Our trainers have trained people to teach warehouse and factory processes. They've helped team leaders use their training skills to implement new IT systems.  They've helped subject matter experts explain complex legal and economic issues. They've trained teachers in New Zealand and the Middle East.

2. We are up-to-date. Research has revealed many popular myths about learning - like matching learning styles and left-brain-right-brain thinking. Let's focus instead on how humans really learn and remember.

3. We'll help your trainers link their training to your organisation's objectives.

 

What could we include?

It’s your workshop, so we’ll design it to meet your needs.

A few suggestions

How to:

  • develop useful, realistic activities that engage learners and build skills 
  • persuade learners to change
  • lead effective ways of generating new ideas
  • give feedback that encourages further learning
