Beyond "Train the Trainer"


Trainer Development: "Train the Trainer" tailored to your organization!

Your organization will benefit from this course if:

  • It wants to decrease dependence on outside vendors and consultants.
  • It sees the benefit of developing "in-house" training capacity.
  • Those currently doing training were never formally trained in adult education models and techniques.
  • There is a growing interest in developing and sustaining a "learning organization" culture.
  • Retention of high-performing employees is a concern.
  • Currently, trainees rarely use the skills they learn in training back on the job.

Trainer Development is a set of learning experiences that enable participants to design and present clear, active training sessions on any subject.

What separates Trainer Development from other "Train-the-Trainer" programs?

Trainer Development is based on your organization's needs. You select those training modules that are most relevant to YOU.

Participants walk out the door having developed a draft training session they can use immediately.

Trainer Development helps:

  • subject matter experts transmit their expertise effectively
  • workshop designers make their sessions come alive through participatory exercises
  • trainers ensure student retention through the use of research-based activities
  • organizations save money by building internal experts.

Trainer Development uses active, reflective, non-gimmicky learning techniques to help participants build and present the best training sessions possible. It's well grounded in adult education research, facilitated by an expert, and guaranteed to build more effective instructors and training designers.

How Does Trainer Development Work?

It works by simply selecting modules most relevant to your organization's needs. (Guila Muir and Associates can help you find the right blend.) These modules, along with other information we gather about your needs, help us create a custom-built, 1 to 5-day workshop.

Trainer Development is cost-effective because we come to YOU. (A one-day, tailor-made workshop for 20 people in your organization typically costs less than registering 5 people in a "one size fits all" workshop off-site.) Your needs and schedule drive the process. We can train groups of 5 or less up to conferences of several hundred.
