Technical training has certain advantages and challenges by
comparison with other types of training. This course provides
participants with the key skills needed. The duration is based on
a group of 4-6. Larger groups will need a longer course.
Overview
Technical training is more than being knowledgeable. A
good technical trainer can achieve better results, competence and
customer loyalty, than someone who is more knowledgeable but who
lacks training skills. Poor technical training results in a
greater requirement for support afterwards and more errors than
are acceptable. This affects the costs and profitability of the
organisation in the short and long-term. Technical training has
different requirements to general training skills.
This practical and intensive course gives participants the key
skills they need.
Who Should Attend
Anyone involved in training internal or external staff
in a technical subject.
