Join the Make Training Work course and learn by experience!

Have you noticed that during your training participants are enthusiastic but when they return home its tough for them to apply what they have learned?

• Do you struggle with participants dozing off or not paying attention?
• 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”?

You are not alone! Experts and trainers often experience that communicating their expertise effectively to others is more difficult than they expect.

But this can change! You can be a trainer with impact. Someone who creates an interactive atmosphere and builds on the experiences and questions of your participants. A trainer who’s group works independently with motivation during online sessions. A trainer that receives positive feedback from participants indicating that they can confidently apply what they have learned and perform better in their work. You can draw participants back for more training or see them recommend you to others.

Do you want to be such a trainer?

Then the iCRA online course “Making Training Work” is exactly what you need. It will help you to design and deliver training with confidence. You will positively impact participants and help them achieve results.

This learning trajectory can be effective from the get go! You not only gain essential skills but you learn how to apply them directly using your training sessions as a case study.

The current version of this course is available only in French and consists of a 1 week face-to-face training in Benin and an online induction period with preliminary assignments. At the end of the face-to-face week, you will have (re)designed and delivered a training session. You will be ready to start delivering trainings that impact the lives of your participants.
