Train the Trainer is a two-day workshop designed to reinforce the trainer standards defined by the ibstpi® (
The International Board of Standards for Training, Performance and Instruction). This course fulfills
one of the prerequisites for acceptance into the MCT program.
Students spend the first day in group discussion and activity moderated by a facilitator covering the ibstpi® trainer requirements, including:
- Understanding Adult Learning Styles, Characteristics, and Models
- Planning and Preparing for Instruction
- Using Effective Presentation Aids
- Managing the Learner Environment
- Developing Effective Verbal and Nonverbal Communication Skills
- Evaluating Learner and Instructor Performance
The second day of this course is reserved for the practice and filming of ten-minute instructional videos designed to help students submit and pass the
CTT+ video requirement, while also serving as a demonstration of the student's skills in preparation for MCT certification. Students are required to prepare a lesson plan prior to the start of the second day and come prepared to present a ten-minute presentation on a technical topic.
The certificate issued upon completion of this course can be used as proof of demonstration of instructional skills for the MCT.
