Practising trainers and line managers who have responsibility for training/facilitating groups.

Psychology plays a key role in the design and delivery of training and learning. And understanding the underpinning psychological theories and behavioural models can transform the effectiveness of any training delivery and strategy. This course enables participants to experience – through exercises, psychometric questionnaires and role-plays – the impact of a variety of approaches to bring about individual and team behavioural change. It equips them to evaluate when and how to use such approaches in the design and delivery of their learning events.

By the end of the course you will be able to:

• evaluate a range of psychological theories and models in the design and delivery of training
• assess whether and how to incorporate these theories and models into your training practice
• assess those training approaches that capitalise best on your natural strengths, preferences and values
• develop your own skills as a trainer using a range of psychological approaches
• design training to maximise the likelihood of transfer of learning back to the workplace
