The City & Guilds Introduction to Trainer Skills (7300) aims to provide participants with a sound introduction to the concepts of a systematic approach to training. It’s an intensive course, designed to be delivered over two days, and is ideal for those who train others in organisations.
N/A
There are no formal entry requirements
2 days
The course is based on the training cycle, covering:• planning (including session planning) • delivery (participants will deliver a 10 or 15 minute ‘session’ that they have planned) • evaluation (self, peer group and course evaluation)The course also covers:• setting ground rules • use of icebreakers • the learning environment • training resources • gaining and maintaining attention • motivation • assessment
Through a mixture of lecture, group work and practical (micro delivery session)
The course is assessed by each participant delivering a 10 or 15 minute training session and taking a multi choice quiz on the second day. The group should agree as a whole whether to deliver 10 or 15 minutes each. Where a cohort is large, a centre may use its discretion to limit the sessions to 10 minutes in order to ensure the course can be completed in the time available. The tutor/observer is not a member of the peer group.Assessment is also via a short multiple choice quiz.
