Train the Trainer
Course Overview
Employee training and employee development are about the same thing, although there’s a slight difference between the terms. Employee training is a program that helps staff receive specific knowledge or skills to enhance performance in their current job positions. Employee development is a broader concept. It is focused more on employee growth and addresses a future role, rather than a current one.
Whether you are preparing to be a professional trainer, or you are someone who does a bit of training as a part of their job, you’ll want to be prepared for the training that you do. This workshop will give all types of training tools to help create and deliver engaging, compelling workshops that will encourage trainees to come back for more.
