Summary: Training your in-house employees can be difficult. But even more challenging is to build an effective training module. This article below will show you how to significantly raise the bar on both.
Train the trainer courses in Germany offer experts in their respective field the tools to transmit that knowledge in a way that is instructionally sound and highly effective. To do this, however, requires an understanding the learning cycle adult learners universally move through when acquiring new knowledge and skills – as well as the different learning styles that are unique to each individual. The learning cycle is the structure underpinning your training module. And knowing about the different learning styles means that a trainer will bring a variety of teaching methods to the classroom as s/he moves through the structure (i.e. the learning structure). A metaphor for this can be seen in manufacturing a car. The structure is like the different parts of the car (i.e. the chassis, the motor, the interior, the body, etc.). The methods correspond to the tools used to manufacture and assemble each part. The result is a learner that is fully engaged with the topic at hand – and achieves a level of learning effectiveness that far exceeds the lecture method (with PowerPoint) typically used in many training programs.
Making your training module hands-on and interactive is the key way to engage the learner and raise learning effectiveness. If you are planning to enrol in our train the trainer workshop (online or face to face), be assured that we practice the very approach we advocate. The seminar will be interactive from beginning to end. The whole seminar is oriented toward the learner. Participants are even asked to bring their own topics to develop them, with individual feedback, during the workshop.
