Making Blended Training Work
Designing and delivering (online) training that has impact on your participants
The pandemic is preventing you from delivering face-to-face group training and forcing you to switch to online training. We can show you how to do it!
Have you noticed that during your training participants are enthusiastic but when they return home, it remains tough for them to apply what they have learned?
You are not alone here. Many trainers are shifting to online training but struggle to offer the same quality and results as in their face- to-face group trainings.

Course Information
Course Overview
Experts and trainers often experience that although they know a lot about their subject, communicating this effectively to others is often more difficult than they expect.
- Do you wonder if by offering your training online, you can have the same impact on your trainees?
- Do you struggle with participant dropping out due to bad internet connection?
- Do you regularly skip important exercises due to time constraints?
- Do your participants remain silent or do other things during an (online) session while you are working hard?
- Do you regularly get the question “how can I apply this in my situation”?
This doesn’t need to be a struggle! You can also be online a trainer that creates an interactive atmosphere and builds on the experiences and questions of your participants. A trainer that gets the group to work independently, motivated and purposefully during online sessions. A trainer that gets feedback from participants about confidently applying what they have learned and thus performing better in their work. You can be that (online) trainer that has an impact and participants come back for more training or recommend you to others.
Do you want to be such a trainer?
