Terms of Use for Trainers

INTRODUCTION

As a trainer, you are responsible for the preparation and management of the entire programme. This requires pre-Training actions. You must discuss the pre-Training responsibilities with the Icarian or Training’s sponsoring institutions. Some things that you must be sure to arrange are included in the following list. There may be several others. Preplanning is essential to the success of your learning Training.

ACTIONS NEEDED

You must arrange for the following long before the Training starts:

1. In pre-Training communications, be sure to provide the participants with any information they will require prior to beginning the Training. This can be accomplished by means of a pre-Training letter. Consult with the us or institutions over plans for pre-Training communication with participants.

2. Arrange for appropriate officials to welcome the participants.

3. Compile a file for each participant. This file will be used by the participant to organize the Training materials from each session. All material labelled ‘Handout’ (see page headers) should be photocopied for distribution to the participants prior to the beginning of the Training. The trainer should check every evening that the material for the next day has been photocopied and is ready for distribution.

4. Before the files are distributed at the Training, each file should contain the following:

 welcome letter

 overview of the module

 tentative schedule

 registration form Note: Samples of the welcome letter, tentative schedule, registration form, and strengths and weaknesses for the day’s activities appear on the following pages.

5. Plan for implementing systematic activities. Prepare yourself to instruct participants on the systematic activities of the Training during the opening session:

 review of daily activities

 brief daily evaluation


6. During the opening session, be prepared with a basket (or bowl or hat) with pieces of paper with all the participants’ names on them. These will be drawn to select the participants who will be responsible for preparing a five- to ten-minute summary of the previous day’s activities and major lessons learnt to present in the morning. Remember to write these names on a flip chart every day. Display it on the wall and refer to it every day. Also remember to provide the ‘reviewer’ with overhead transparencies and pen if he/she prefers not to use PowerPoint.


7. At the end of each day:

 Distribute the evaluation form (‘Strengths and Weaknesses’) and invite the participants to briefly evaluate the day’s activities. Collect the forms and summarize the results overnight to report back to them the following morning. Note that it is necessary to cluster the answers in the evening.

 The participants should evaluate the diverse features of the day’s activities. You should provide the participants with a copy and/or display the features with the overhead projector during the evaluation session.

TRAINING SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS

8. Be sure to communicate with the participants in advance. Some Training exercises focus on the participants’ institutes. Participants should come prepared to discuss their experiences.

9. Read the ‘instructions to trainers’ carefully to find out which handouts need to be sent to participants before the Training starts. It is very important for the participants to read some of the long handouts prior to the Training. It is recommended that you send the long texts (above 4 pages) as e-mail attachments or mail printouts when necessary.

10. Prepare photocopies of the Reference Materials list to distribute to the participants during Day 1.
