Workshop Synopsis

Research has shown that the effectiveness of learning (e.g. high learning retention rate) is based on the learning experiences of the learners. In this workshop you will learn new approaches that will transform your teaching and training that could dramatically increase your learners’ retention rate. You will learn strategies, tools and techniques to redesign what you train or teach into interesting, interactive and engaging learning experiences for your learners.

This workshop is for

Trainers, Teachers, Lecturers, Instructors, Directing Staff and anyone who wishes to conduct training/teaching in an engaging and effective manner to maximise learning and achieve desired learning outcomes.

Learning Methodology

From the perspective of the learners, this workshop covers all three aspects of Knowledge, Skills & Attitudes (or Mindset) enhancement.

We adopt a multi-modal learning methodology to optimise learning, such as:

Lecture/Presentation: This will be the basic mode for providing overviews, consolidating knowledge, giving instructions and debriefing.

Learning by Discovery: Instead of the conventional delivery of content via lecture/presentation, learners will discover new knowledge through the resources made available before and during the workshop. Coupled with group work, it has the advantage of making the learning relevant.

Learning by Doing: This will involve learners working in groups on exercises so that they can have deeper appreciation of facilitative approaches and gain confidence in applying them after the workshop.

Group Learning : Since the learners for this programme are likely to come from different organisations, there is much for them to learn from one another, especially in relation to the way facilitative training is practised in the different organisations.

Reflective Learning: This will raise the awareness of the learners about themselves as trainers, integrating what they have learnt and connecting what they have learnt at the emotional level.

Testimonials from Participants

Facilitation helps students to be independent (active) learners, instead of just listening (passive) participants in a learning environment.
My personal point of view on lessons has changed – that it can be interesting & interactive.
Much more can be achieved in 30min of lessons and all views and opinions can be shared at one time.
How the use of movements to excite participants and engages them
The strategies & process can be used for many subjects.
It is the right course. It gives you a lot of strategies to facilitate the class go for it
