to attend a Train the Trainer course? Then our Distance
Learning Train the Trainer course might just be what you
are looking for.
Designed for both new trainers
and those who have a number of years’ experience, it has

will be provided and there is full support from our
trainer staff throughout the duration of your study.
Course material is emailed to you and you can complete
and return assignments/projects as they are done.

Who is the course for?
Our Distance Learning Train the Trainer course was
created due to popular demand to meet the needs of staff
who are training to be trainers but do not have the time
to attend a course. Or for companies who struggle to get
all their trainers under the same roof at the same time.
Why should I take a Distance Learning Train the
Trainer course?
As most people will tell you, delivering training for
the first time can be a daunting and nerve-racking
experience, and this course makes that experience as
easy as possible, introducing you to the basics and
helping you to quickly become effective and confident in
the training room.
What will I learn?
The course consists of five units covering learning
styles, training plans, assessment, methods of delivery,
running a training session, bringing your training to an
end and making the most of evaluation.
How does it work?
When you sign up for the course we will send you the
first of five units by email. The unit will include all
the information you require on the topic (for example,
Unit 1 is about how we learn). It will also include at
least one assignment. Once you have completed the unit
you can let us know by email. We will send you a brief
questionnaire relating to the unit and your answers will
be assessed by us. If all is well, the next unit will be
sent to you. This process will continue until you have
completed all five units.
What if I struggle with the course work or do
not understand something?
Your appointed trainer is available by email 24 hours a
day. You will also have a phone number to contact your
trainer during office hours.
Is there a practical assessment?
For the Distance Learning Train the Trainer course, a
practical assessment is not included. However, this can
be arranged as an add-on. This would involve us
arranging a day for our trainer to observe a
training session delivered by you (at an
additional cost).
Is the course accredited?
The course is not accredited but we are one of the
leading suppliers of Train the Trainer courses in the UK
and you will receive a Certificate of Competence upon
completion.
What organisations already use your training?
We currently deliver training to BP, CBRE, the Ministry
of Defence, Glasgow Caledonian University,
Johnson and Johnson, Menzies
Aviation, Bluebird Care, Glasgow Clyde College,
Routes to Work, Orchard Care Homes, Falkirk Council,
North Lanarkshire Council and Wirral Partnership Homes
to name a few.
