This two-day Developing Your Training Program course has been designed for trainers who want to develop training programs that are meaningful, practical, and will benefit both trainees and the organizations they work for. Professionals can have different retention levels and various learning curves, and courseware that doesn’t account for this might fail.
Participants will learn about the essential elements of a training program; how to apply different methodologies to program design; how to prepare, research, and deliver strong content; how to use an instructional model; and how to create a training program proposal.
Our Developing Your Training Program course materials are completely customizable and industry-tested for the best results.
