Preparation

As a Trainer, you are provided with the curriculum, and a set of PowerPoint slides, providing the content of the training day. Your role will involve being knowledgeable about the content of the training and facilitating the training, based on this information. Bring your enthusiasm, experience, skills, and knowledge to the session.  A key to moving sessions forward is the ability to engage with the participants as well as facilitate participants’ engagement with one another.

Be sure to always be prepared, organized, and diligent to ensure that the training session will go as smoothly as possible. If food is being provided for attendees, be sure to ask about allergies and dietary restrictions before starting the session. Be sure to not overlook informing individuals of certain important landmarks such as washrooms, water fountains, automated external defibrillator (AED), fire exits, and exits.
