Course description
The Virtual Facilitative Trainer
Real learning takes place when the trainer stops talking and invites learners to start talking and participate in the process. Virtual classrooms present a unique set of challenges and opportunities when it comes to interacting with and engaging learners.
This workshop is designed to equip participants with the foundational skills and knowledge necessary to conduct active, engaging virtual learning events with confidence. Participants will engage in two highly interactive half-day sessions with many opportunities to practice new skills and receive coaching and peer feedback in a safe environment.
Who should attend?
- Internal Trainers or Consultants transitioning programs to a virtual classroom
- Leaders or Subject Matter Experts who have been asked to provide product, process or policy training
