Training Delivery Skills

The course blends theory, practical exercises and reflection to help learners gain confidence in their ability to train others. Every element is customised to reflect the learner’s workplace environment and organisational standards.  

Key areas include: 

• Understanding how adults learn and identifying learning styles, supported by individual learning style assessments and reflection on how these influence workplace training. 
• Selecting and applying effective training models and approaches, explored through group work and facilitated discussion to determine what works best in different contexts and organisational settings. 
• Designing training sessions tailored to workplace requirements, culminating in building learning interventions that reflect organisational needs and ensure consistency when training others. 
• Practising delivery with observation and feedback, starting with peer exercises in a safe classroom environment before moving into customised workplace-based applications. 
• Building communication skills for clarity and engagement, with opportunities for facilitated discussion, role play and skills practice that reflect real workplace scenarios. 
• Using assessment and validation methods in workplace settings, introduced through theory input and practical exercises focused on what is most appropriate for specific job roles. 
• Addressing challenges and managing difficult training situations, with group reflection, Tutor input and recommended strategies aligned to organisational support structures. 
• Developing self-evaluation practices for continuous improvement, including structured self-awareness activities, group discussion and agreed actions for ongoing reflective practice tailored to individual roles. 

Practical exercises and group reflection are woven throughout the programme, and content can be adapted for In-Company delivery to align with organisational processes and priorities.
