Over the span of my career I have facilitated as both a BMC corporate trainer and internal technical trainer where I have used both vendor material and designed training from scratch. I have also produced two training courses for Traversys.
I have delivered training in person to locations in US, Europe, Middle East and Asia. Remotely 24/7 including Australia from the UK and also in pre-recorded material for inclusion in corporate training portal.
My perspective on the keys to effective corporate training are:
-
Good pacing – particularly if the vendor material does not fill the time-slot
-
Build in feedback and Q&As
-
Extra material and real world use cases if you have time and appropriate
-
Engage with students, don’t just sit in the chair and repeat a script! Move around, be expressive. Corporate training can be incredibly boring or incredibly rewarding.
