Train the Trainer: Facilitation Skills
A scenario-based e-learning course on turning subject expertise into facilitation.
Overview

In production. It will ship as a scenario-based, self-paced e-learning course: a SCORM 1.2 package for your LMS, with completion tracking.
Format. Self-paced, scenario-based e-learning. SCORM 1.2 — upload it to your LMS and completion tracks automatically.
Who it is for. Any organisation that wants to run this as self-paced learning; suitable for employees at any level.
What learners take away
- Distinguish facilitation from presenting and apply adult learning principles to session design.
- Design a session with observable outcomes, an activity rhythm and a workable run sheet.
- Give instructions that land first time, form groups and manage timing and energy.
- Use questioning, wait time and three-stage debriefs to turn activities into learning.
- Handle over-talkers, silent rooms, resistance and plan failure without losing the room.
- Deliver a short practice session and give and receive evidence-based feedback on it.
Course outline
Separates presenting, training and facilitating, and grounds the day in how adults actually learn: through relevance, experience and doing rather than receiving.
Participants write observable outcomes, structure an open-body-close arc, build an activity rhythm and produce a run sheet for a real upcoming session.
The first ten minutes, instructions that land first time, grouping and movement, and managing energy across a session.
Wait time, question technique and the three-stage debrief that converts activities into learning.
Over-talkers, silent rooms, sent-here participants, collapsing timings and the facilitator's own nerves, worked through a scenario clinic and a full case study.
Two practice rounds against an observation checklist, with structured feedback on delivering, observing and participating.
Four evaluation questions drawn from Kirkpatrick's levels, then a 30-day plan naming a real session, three practices to build in and an observer.
