About This Product

Instructor, trainer, and facilitator have the same major goal: to transfer knowledge, skills, and/or new attitudes to each participant in their session. This program will teach you the techniques for successful instruction and set you on the path towards establishing your own “trainer identity.” You will learn to identify the characteristics of the learner/facilitator relationship, utilize methods to remove communication barriers, apply skills to improve training, plan ways to involve groups in the learning process and deal with the dynamics of a group. Lastly, you will learn to define and use specific methods for dealing with conflict and the change process.
