Overview

This virtual course provides a comprehensive insight into everything you need to know and understand before embarking on a career in training design, development or delivery.

You will also cover the fundamental principles of how people learn and the natural cycle of learning; considering how to reflect those principles in the learning activities you facilitate in the training room.

Completing this course will prepare you for the next step of taking a deeper dive into the process of designing and delivering training.
