Ready made content for trainers

Ready to use “off the shelf” training resources

Are you looking for Ready made content for trainers & training materials?

Ready made training courses with trainers notes

As time goes on it is getting increasingly difficult to write material from scratch. Not that writing is difficult – but that the time to do so is becoming more and more difficult. Training solutions are needed this week, with little time to prepare effectively.

In addition it is not only trainers that are asked to design and deliver training courses, but HR and line managers.

With our Ready made training materials it is all here for you, a complete kit:

* Facilitators guide with icebreakers and how to lead training sessions
* Leaders guide – step by step what to do and say
* Participant packs & handouts – ready for you to print and hand out
* PowerPoint slides ready for you to brand & customize
* Certificates – ready to print
* Activities, exercises and other resources as required

Most of our ready made & ready to use courses are half day duration, some are one day. They are easy to shorten or make longer as you need.

when is training ‘old fashioned"?

May 20, 2008

It is 1800 and I am on the 1640 train back from Leeds to London after meeting with a potential client. I overhear a telephone conversation where an individual described a training room as basic.
Yes it had the required tables and chairs, windows, space, a rail to clip flowcharts around the room – lots of wall space etc.. but you have to take your own projector and loud speakers.

So is this ‘basic spec’ old fashioned – or do we expect different things?
What is considered fit for purpose?
so we need to use PowerPoint every time? Certainly I use PowerPoint from time to tile buy for most training courses I ca take it or leave it.

So if this is ‘old fashioned‘ what is current? what is high tech? What makes a room old fashioned?

Are PowerPoint and interactive whiteboards THE minimum or are these just tools.
what do you think?
