Description

This programme provides practical help to enable participants to grasp the mindset of an expert trainer. Appreciating the ‘inner game’ of beliefs and values is crucial when designing and running a training program. The course also covers skill sets that are essential to facilitating dynamic and powerful training events.

 

The daily programme can be found here.

Learning objectives

Specific objectives of the seminar are:

  • Provide an opportunity to reflect on what it means to be a “good trainer”
  • Raise awareness of supportive and limiting beliefs and how they affect performance
  • Build the participants’ awareness of their own beliefs related to being a trainer
  • Build the participants’ awareness of their own strengths
  • Raise trainers’ ability to create a supportive learning environment
  • Introduce mind expansion techniques to tap into the creative force of the mind
  • Provide techniques for identifying and handling unrealistic expectations both from oneself and others
  • Provide tools for trainers’ optimal self-care
  • Provide techniques for improved trainer-learner communication
  • Enhance confidence in the participants
  • Expand the paradigm of a trainer and hence allow the participants to engage in new creative ways of teaching
  • Provide an opportunity to give and receive feedback from other participants
  • Desired change in an educational context

Methodology & assessment

The methodology of the training course includes a learner-centred approach and a focus on enhancing continuous personal development. The aim of the training is not to produce ready-made solutions (passive learning), but to inspire the participants to search creatively for knowledge and effective solutions, which are connected to their needs and challenges (active learning). In this way, the participants take responsibility for their own learning process and act as active partners in the training.

Attention will be given to how to implement the findings and skills in real daily working situations after the training course. Methods such as debate, pair and group work, and individual practical exercises will be used throughout the course.

Assessment of the course combines formal and non-formal assessment methods such as self-evaluation at the end of the course and formal evaluation forms provided by the organisation.

Materials, digital tools & other learning resources

This course equips trainers with interactive materials, digital tools, and facilitation strategies to design and deliver engaging sessions. Participants engage with case studies, practical exercises, and self-assessment tools to enhance instructional design, group management, and feedback techniques. Hands-on resources support effective and interactive training delivery.
