From enhancing performance to reducing employee turnover, training is a significant, ongoing investment for a business. 

But it can be costly. 

One way of reducing costs whilst empowering staff and offering exciting career progression is to train some of your staff to become a trainer themselves.

Read on to learn more about what training the trainer entails and how it can change your training needs.

What Is Training The Trainer?

Train-the-trainer courses are programs designed to equip existing staff members with the skills and knowledge to effectively train others in your business. . 

Though it varies between organisations, the best candidates for train-the-trainer courses will typically:

  • Have strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Employ a deep knowledge of the subject matter 
  • Be enthusiastic and adaptable
  • Work well with others.

Not everyone is suitable or able to become a trainer, but those that have the ability can be nurtured and empowered through a training course…

A training course just like Envesca’s Delivering Training course! Let’s take a look at what’s on offer. 

Overview Of Highfield Level 3 Delivering Training Course

This 3-day training course is the perfect first step for the staff members you think will make great trainers in your organisation. 

‘Delivering Training’ focuses on developing planning, preparation and delivery skills so that participants come away confident and competent in delivering pre-prepared training materials. Individuals will know how to make their training more engaging, understand how to manage time effectively and have a solid grasp on delivery techniques. 

Because it is a generic qualification, the skills learnt throughout the Delivering Training course can be applied both in-house and externally in any business and any sector. 

And for those looking for something more informal, Envesca is introducing a one-day unaccredited course where delegates can get a better understanding of the demands and requirements of being a trainer.

The Benefits of Training The Trainer

Training the trainer is a brilliant thing to introduce into your organisation because it brings many benefits…

Cost

Training employees to deliver courses within your business heavily reduces the fees you’d spend on external trainers. You’ll also spend less on travel and logistical costs, whilst benefitting from the ability to train more employees at once. 

Increased Productivity

Well-trained employees are more efficient and make fewer mistakes, leading to tangible improvements in output from your staff force. Both trainers and staff members can also access support more informally, quickly and directly than relying on external training organisations.

Knowledge Retention

Studies show that people learn better from their peers. In-house trainers, familiar with the company culture and specific challenges, can deliver more relevant and memorable training.

Specific Learning

With a deep-rooted understanding of how  the business works and the ins and outs of the field, internal trainers can tailor training content to a business’s specific needs. This ensures it’s directly applicable to real-world situations the trainees deal with daily.

How Training In Training Improves Engagement

We’ve covered the business benefits of investing in training the trainer, but what does the individual get out of it?

Let’s dive in.

Career Development

Being nominated as a candidate for training as a trainer is a huge opportunity. Training as a trainer gives people the chance to advance their professional journey, increasing motivation and job satisfaction. 

Leadership Skills

Learning to train others sharpens valuable skills that will support staff members throughout their professional ladder climb. From communication to interpersonal skills, individuals will develop plenty of skills that are essential for leadership roles, providing a wider scope for progression. 

Subject Matter Expertise

Through engagement with a train-the-trainer course, participants gain an even deeper knowledge of the topic they teach and become valuable resources for the entire team. 

Confidence Boost

Successfully training other individuals within the business you work in builds confidence, connections and a sense of ownership within the workplace.

Your Business Is Growing

Training internal trainers perfectly suits businesses that are expanding because it is a scalable training solution.
