Frequently Asked Questions
Question: What is the main focus of the content of your Train-the-Trainer workshop?
The focus of the Train-the-Trainer program is to prepare the participant to understand how adults learn best, understand how to assess the learning need, and how to write solid objectives that tie to the program design and development. There is a large part of the workshop that focuses on the delivery and evaluation of the training. Topics include communication skills, presentation skills, various best practices training techniques, preparing for the delivery of training, listening, questioning, handling difficult situations, virtual training, one-on-one, classroom management, and finally evaluation. We would suggest using your content for the various practices throughout the three-day workshop. The amount of emphasis on a given topic and if there are a particular policy and practice at your organization, we will infuse it into our training.
Question: How many days is TrainSMART’s Train-the-Trainer Course?

Question: What does the course include?
Answer: Following the workshop, each participant is able to submit a recording of their training, and then experience a one-on-one virtual facilitated feedback session.
Question: What is the 3rd day of training like?
Answer: On Day 3, you will facilitate a 10 to 15-minute “training session” on a topic of your choice. This event is peer-reviewed and video recorded. Your goal for this session is to simulate as real a training experience as possible. To help you achieve this, please review the attached Train-the-Trainer Pre-work document then send me a high-level outline of your topic, along with an example of an activity you’d like to include at least five days prior to the course. If you are able to do this, I will send you feedback and suggestions before the start of the course. You may bring any additional materials and aids that will help with your session.

TrainSmart’s Internationally Certified Train-the-Trainer workshop is certified by The International Board of Certified Trainers and is not Self-Certified. You will find that most of the TTT programs are certified by the company that designed and developed the workshops which do not give it creditability or hold it to a particular standard, like TrainSmart’s TTT. Further, TrainSmart tailors/customizes all of its programs to meet the needs/goals/objectives of the audience, as we know that this will provide the greatest value and knowledge transfer for the participants.
Question: In your company’s view, what makes a person a great trainer?
A great trainer is one that listens to the need, provides feedback for the expected outcomes, along with activities that align with the client, engages the audience, while attending to each participant’s concerns, goals and experience and all the while makes the learning fun by the design of several interactions and check-ins with the participant. The trainer uses the Tell3 method: Tell them what you are going to (teach) tell them, Tell/teach them, Tell them what you told. Taught them. Review. The trainer is nurturing and provides the tools, best practices, and recommendations for being a successful trainer.
Question: How much does the 3-Day Train-the-Trainer Course Cost?
