Welcome to our train the trainer guidelines. Here you will find a series of articles, case studies, examples and analysis of various training methodologies that allow you to improve your training delivery.
Teaching is a skill separate from the subject domain. If you are in the training industry and consider training people your career, you will gain enormously by focusing on improving your training delivery, sometimes even much more than focusing on improving your technical skills.
Teaching is directly related to how people learn and your knowledge in this area can help you transfer more of your knowledge to others with less effort.
Recent extensive research on learning and training has significantly improved the quality of training courses in comparison with what they used to achieve in the past. However, the research and the associated guidelines are not as popular as one hopes.
Here, at Skills Converged, it is our intention to share these guidelines with you. Along with our training materials, we believe that your impeccable training delivery can make a difference and improve people’s lives around the world.
We share these guidelines in a number of ways. You can find a series of training articles here to study in your own time. Each resource will help you explore a particular topic along with links to other content that allow you to explore it in more depth.
We also provide a Train the Trainer Self-Study Course that systematically explores different aspects of training. We recommend that you start with this course as each lesson guides you to various resources and articles on this site. We have designed this course in a way that can be your starting point to get the most from our content.
