How to Be an Effective Trainer : Skills for Managers and New Trainers

Rating:
Summary: A manual for trainers that really is practical!
Review: For new trainers, experienced trainers and managers of training, this book is invaluable. As a full-time adult training specialist for almost twenty years, I have read many books on the subject, and this is the one I always recommend. The authors have managed to include the important theory on how adults learn best, without getting boring, and then use this theory to support many practical techniques for trainers to use, so you know what will work, and why. Occasional trainers and new full-time trainers will find all the basics, experienced trainers will find ways of improving or varying techniques, managers will find ways of supporting the training process. Topics include Learning Principles, Training Needs Analysis, Leading Discussions, Questions, Case Studies, Training Aids, Computer-Based Training, Marketing Training and many more.
