Who is the course for?
Our Distance Learning Train the Trainer course was created due to popular demand to meet the needs of staff who are training to be trainers but do not have the time to attend a course. Or for companies who struggle to get all their trainers under the same roof at the same time.

Why should I take a Distance Learning Train the Trainer course?
As most people will tell you, delivering training for the first time can be a daunting and nerve-racking experience, and this course makes that experience as easy as possible, introducing you to the basics and helping you to quickly become effective and confident in the training room.

What will I learn?
The course consists of five units covering learning styles, training plans, assessment, methods of delivery, running a training session, bringing your training to an end and making the most of evaluation.

How does it work?
When you sign up for the course we will send you the first of five units by email. The unit will include all the information you require on the topic (for example, Unit 1 is about how we learn). It will also include at least one assignment. Once you have completed the unit you can let us know by email. We will send you a brief questionnaire relating to the unit and your answers will be assessed by us. If all is well, the next unit will be sent to you. This process will continue until you have completed all five units.

What if I struggle with the course work or do not understand something?
Your appointed trainer is available by email 24 hours a day. You will also have a phone number to contact your trainer during office hours.

Is there a practical assessment?
For the Distance Learning Train the Trainer course, a practical assessment is not included. However, this can be arranged as an add-on. This would involve us arranging a day for our trainer to observe a micro-training session delivered by you (at an additional cost).

Is the course accredited?
The course is not accredited but we are one of the leading suppliers of Train the Trainer courses in the UK and you will receive a Certificate of Competence upon completion.

What organisations already use your training?
We currently deliver training to BP, CBRE, the Ministry of Defence, Glasgow Caledonian University, Menzies Aviation, Bluebird Care, Glasgow Clyde College, Routes to Work, Orchard Care Homes, Falkirk Council, North Lanarkshire Council and Queens Cross Housing Association to name a few.

What does Gary Bedingfield know about training?
Gary Bedingfield is a fully qualified further education trainer and assessor with 25 years industry experience. He has worked throughout the United Kingdom delivering to a wide variety of clients.
