This workshop is designed for local trainers who have participated in the original Train the Trainer: Teaching and Presentation Techniques course who are conducting skills training they design themselves. Trainers review key curriculum development concepts and build on the theories they learned in the Train the Trainer through hands-on, practical time. They also learn new organizational and planning skills and how to visualize different ways to reach adult learners.
Local trainers lay out the topics sequentially, finalize a safety or craft skills course outline, and complete at least one handout for their intended course. Trainers will receive support and feedback on the instructional design of their course from the instructors and the other IATSE trainers in the course. Trainers must have presented at least three courses for their local and reported these to the TTF for tracking.
