Are you an experienced training professional looking to take your skills to the next level? If so, you're not alone. Many “subject-matter expert” trainers have found themselves in your shoes - eager to grow, but unsure of the path forward. The training and development field is evolving rapidly, and those who are willing to learn, adapt, and innovate will be the ones to lead the charge.

That's where the "Total Trainer" workshop series comes in. You'll gain the skills to assess existing programs, create dynamic new initiatives, and make a lasting impact in your organization. This is more than just skill-building; it's about evolving into a true performance consultant who drives change and inspires excellence.

Wherever you are in your journey, "Total Trainer" is designed to help you evolve and excel. This transformative program will empower you to:

• Move toward performance consulting, making a tangible difference in your organization
• Develop mastery in training models, concepts, and best practices
• Practice your skills in a safe environment with real clients

Let's explore how "Total Trainer" helps you achieve these three key goals:

Move Toward Performance Consulting

Performance consulting is more than just delivering training; it's about identifying and solving performance issues within organizations. "Total Trainer" equips you with the tools and knowledge to excel in this role.

You'll dive into the essence of performance consulting. You'll learn how to identify the root causes of performance problems, suggest and implement effective solutions, and transition from merely delivering training to solving critical organizational issues. This approach will elevate your role from an order-taker to a strategic consultant.

To solidify your learning, you'll engage in scenario activities that mimic real-life consulting situations. For instance, you'll practice using performance consulting questions to determine the actual needs of a client, such as whether team-building training is genuinely necessary. These activities prepare you to apply consulting skills confidently and effectively in your professional role​​.

Develop Skills to Apply Various Training Models, Concepts, and Best Practices

"Total Trainer" ensures that you are well-versed in a variety of training models and best practices, enabling you to design and deliver effective training programs.

Beginning with the first day of Creating Training, you'll be introduced to the key components of effective training initiatives. You'll learn to create a learning journey that includes pre-event, intersession, and follow-up activities, ensuring that training is not only delivered but also effectively reinforced​​.

From there you'll focus on planning for implementation — a critical phase often overlooked. You'll learn to identify implementation needs, create detailed plans, and use checklists to manage risks. This ensures that your training initiatives achieve their goals and deliver lasting impact​​.

Our second workshop offers hands-on experience with various instructional methods and lesson plan structures. You'll explore different models like Gagne’s 9 Instructional Events and the 5 Es Model​​.

You will evaluate and choose the right training modalities for your programs, from Instructor-Led Training (ILT) and Virtual Instructor-Led Training (vILT) to asynchronous and blended learning. This comprehensive understanding allows you to tailor your training to best meet your audience's needs​​.

Practice My Skills in a Safe Environment with a Real Client

One of the standout features of "Total Trainer" is the opportunity to practice your skills in a supportive, real-world environment.

Throughout the modules, you'll participate in interactive breakout activities. These exercises offer a supportive environment to design and refine lesson plans, develop training content, and practice performance consulting techniques. You'll work on real-world scenarios and collaborate with peers, ensuring you gain the confidence and practical experience needed to excel​​​​.

Finally, you'll engage in group work to develop and test training initiatives using iterative tools. This collaborative environment allows you to receive constructive feedback from peers and facilitators, ensuring continuous improvement and mastery of your skills​​.

Modules like the performance consulting scenarios provide simulated client interactions. These scenarios prepare you to handle real client situations effectively, ensuring that you can transfer your learning to your professional practice seamlessly​​.
