Delegates will be given several opportunities to conduct training sessions for their colleagues over the three days. These sessions will be digitally recorded and played back for analysis and critique.

---

Before the course each delegate will be asked to complete a Pre-Course Questionnaire to determine their individual objectives for attending the course. These objectives will be used by the Tutor to give on-target training that is focused on the individual delegates.

At the end of the course each delegate will be asked to complete a Personal Development Plan that can be used as part of future appraisals, and that will also be an important tool for management reference.

End-of-Course Training Simulation:

Each delegate will be required to do a 15-minute final training simulation on a topic you will be delivering training on, back at work.  Delegates who do not currently deliver training can choose any relevant training topic.

ILM Assessment:

For delegates enrolled on the ILM programme, this final training simulation will be evaluated as part of your ILM assessment.  To receive your ILM Certificate, you must achieve a minimum passing score of 50%.
