The starting point
Knowing your subject is not enough to know how to teach it.
In an organization, the people asked to train are often chosen because they have mastered their trade. But expertise and the ability to pass it on are two different capabilities.
Effective training calls for presence, an understanding of adult learning, facilitation methods, an instructional architecture, tools and the ability to observe what is actually being learned.
From one person's expertise to an organization's training capacity.
- ExpertiseA person holds knowledge.
- TransmissionThey learn to structure and communicate it.
- LearningThey create the conditions for others to learn.
- DesignThey build a genuine learning experience.
- AutonomyThe design lives on in the organization.

An example of a design produced in the health sector
Training designed to live on without its designer.
A workshop was built so that it could be facilitated by internal trainers. The package includes the deck, the detailed notes, the trainer's guide, the instructional intentions, the facilitation methods, the points to watch, the participant materials, the activities and the assessment.
The documentation is not there to archive the training: it is there to allow someone else to facilitate it.
