Are you worried how to become a World Class Trainer or Public Speaker? You need not worry anymore!
So many of people I come across have so much to share from their experiences in life, many of them highly accomplished in their own field, some of them so passionate about becoming a trainer. But they are worried that they are not QUALIFIED enough or they don’t have the required SKILL or they can’t face people due to fear of PUBLIC SPEAKING.
If you are one of them too, most likely this program is for you. In this program you will learn everything that is required to become super skilled and overcome everything that keeps obstructing trainers from realizing their dream. Training industry is one of the fasted growing industries and Trainers are one of most influential and highest paid professionals in the world.
Train the Trainer (TTT) is a comprehensive program which deals with all the aspects of Learning and Development gamut including Human Psychology and Physiology, from Program Design to Delivery.
The program commits itself to transform anyone who wishes to become an excellent Trainer, Facilitator or a Public Speaker and eventually become someone who can connect with themselves and the audience in the most authentic way and deliver the intended outcome. This self explorative approach will help participants understand their deepest secrets and enables them to present their natural empowered self so that they can self-generate and inspire others at the same time.

Is Train-The-Trainer (TTT) standard or do you customize as per the organizational/individual’s needs?
The Public TTT program offered is a comprehensive and standard program required for the certification. However, we do tailor/customize each workshop to enhance competencies that are most relevant to the participants in their context. We make sure that the core module of training is ensured at the same time and keep updating the workshop for latest research in the learning field.
While working with Organizations, Paritosh does offer flexibility to deliver the program in most effective way possible in given context and environment. To ensure the quality and consistency, only selected few qualified facilitators with required experience deliver such workshops.
What is the main focus of the content of your Train The Trainer program?
Our TTT workshop focuses to prepare the participants to understand how adults learn best, understand how to assess the learning need, how to write solid objectives tied to the program design and development. There is a large part of the workshop that focuses on delivering and evaluating the training. Topics include communication skills, presentation skills, various best practices and training techniques, preparing for the delivery of training, listening, questioning and handling difficult situations, virtual training, one-on-one classroom management and final evaluation. We would suggest using your content for various practices throughout the three day workshop. The amount of emphasis to a given topic will be customized based on a particular policy and practice at your organization in our training.
How do you assess the group training needs? Do you customize your course content and delivery based on that? If so, why? And if not, why not?
We initially have a conversation with the person responsible for sourcing of the TTT. We have a series of questions that we ask and we do a review of the course content and align this with the objectives that the client is seeking. We create a modified detailed outline and agenda and review with the person responsible. Quite often the person responsible will introduce us to the participants via email and we reach out to have a discussion regarding their experience, concerns and needs. After the discussions, we customize the course content and delivery.
Is your program content fit to a global setting? How do you make sure it takes into account cultural differences? Do you recommend addressing the entire global group in a single class? What is your recommendation given for our needs stated in previous question?
Yes, Train The Trainer TTT workshop is fit for a global setting. In all cases, we do an intake of each participant to make sure we understand their goals/objectives/takeaways for their training participation. We confirm this with our primary content for that region to ensure that we tailor the content appropriately for the localized audience. Quite often, we utilize a facilitator that is from that culture and we will also adjust the activities to ensure that they are appropriate for the culture, audience and learning objectives. We run TTT with a diverse cultural group and we have been successful; however, when the unlike groups can be trained together, there is often a greater and deeper value for each of the participants.
Do you have global reach? How would you reach people in Europe, Asia, Latin America, North America, Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa?
Yes, we have global reach and resources that we can utilize in these regions, if time zone and language are important factors.
Do you have any tools to assess people readiness to be a trainer before and after your class?
Yes, we make attendees do a self-assessment on day one. Then we revisit their answers on day three and acknowledge where they feel more confident and where they need to continue development.
How do you make sure people from different backgrounds will come out of the training with a standard of teaching quality?
During the final exercise, attendees must demonstrate a basic level of mastery for the topics presented.
What is the ideal duration of your Train The Trainer class? What is your recommended duration for our specific circumstances?
The ideal duration is a total of four days, with a break in between so that the participants go back to their offices to produce their training development and return for days three and four to present their design plan and deliver a segment of that training as their final training project. Most of our clients opt for the three consecutive days.
Do you certify Trainers? How recognized is your certification globally?
Yes, we do certify trainers. Taking our Internationally Certified Train The Trainer workshop by the International Board of Certified Trainers completes the first step. Following the successful completion of this workshop, the participant applies for Trainer Certification to the International Board of Certified Trainers. We will assist in the application, if interested. Some clients include the cost of certification application into the cost of the workshop and we assist, collect the applications and submit on behalf of the client. It generally takes 6-8 weeks to receive the acknowledgement of the certification.
What differentiates your Train The Trainer program from other Train-the-Trainer companies and programs?
Our Internationally Certified Train the Trainer workshop is certified by The International Board of Certified Trainers and is not Self-Certified. You will find that most of the TTT programs are certified by the company that designs and develops the workshops which does not give it creditability or hold it to a particular standard, like our TTT. Further, we tailor/customize all of the programs to meet the needs/goals/objectives of the audience, as we know that this will provide the greatest value and knowledge transfer for the participants.
In your company’s view, what makes a person a great trainer?
A great trainer is one that listens to the need, provides feedback for the expected outcomes along with activities that align with the client, engages the audience while attending to each participant’s concerns, goals and experience and all the while makes learning fun by the design of several interactions and check-ins with the participant. The trainer uses the Tell 3 method: Tell them what you are going to teach/tell them, teach them and review. The trainer is nurturing and provides the tools, best practices and recommendations for being a successful trainer.
We want to guarantee each trainer coming out of our TTT workshop will be able to deliver the training that meets the requirement of one-right (continuity, consistency, longevity) globally with good quality as compared to the current professional trainers.
We cannot guarantee the level of instructor performance post training. We can guarantee that each instructor is provided the same instruction and completes all of the assignments, but too many factors impact what happens on the job – quality of course materials, subject matter, local leadership and even attitude of the students in a class. Our design makes it easy to be flexible for those attending to achieve positive results. One thing we do know is that better results come through preparation and practice neither of which we can control post-training. We offer one-on-one virtual coaching to assist in closing the gap to ensure a quality trainer.
How do you measure your course effectiveness in preparing people to be trainers?
If the attendee can pass the end of course practical exercise to the satisfaction of the facilitator and their peers, we believe he or she is positioned to be a successful trainer. The TTT is the first step in this process. Attendees must practice, develop materials, accept criticism and change behaviors many times in order to be a successful trainer. And they must have the support and encouragement of their leadership.
What languages are you able to cover? Can you deliver in English as the standard? Would you recommend regional classes in local languages even with English speaking trainers?
Paritosh Sharan has facilitators that speak multiple languages located all over the world. Yes, we use English as a standard and this is what we find our global customers to require of their employees; however, when the participants are organizationally lower, we find having a facilitator that can digress to the native language which makes a big difference. For example; lab techs versus engineers and this is primarily in parts of Asia and Japan.
Do you have specific criteria to select people to guarantee the right people are in the class? Or is it the customer responsibility to provide the criteria and guarantee the right people in the class?
Most often the client selects the people; however, in many cases, we produce a report to our client with observations and recommendations based on the Train The Trainer experience. We have found that successful trainers understand behaviors and can easily adapt to meet student expectations. From a behavioral perspective, most successful trainers relate well with people and remain patient under pressure. From a DISC perspective, I and S behaviors typically make better facilitators.
What is your ideal group size for a TTT class? What would be ideal in our specific circumstances and why?
The ideal group size for instructor led is 10 participants per facilitator. The rationale is the amount of practice time that we want to provide each participant. They do a one minute, three minute, five minute and 10-15 minute training presentation. More than 10 participants in a workshop lessen the amount of time that each participant has for practice and facilitated feedback.
What is your ideal training setting (classroom, webinar, etc.) and why? What would be ideal in our specific circumstances and why?
The ideal setting is still the classroom as we easily observe the modeling done by the facilitator as well as each participant learns from the other participant’s practice sessions. This is more difficult in a webinar setup. However, there are ways to accomplish the content and review such as utilizing virtual instructor-led and in between webinars, the participants are required to complete project work and post recorded video for facilitated feedback. In case of the virtual training module, this can be delivered and practiced virtually.
