This module incorporates several inter-related learning strategies. The interactive learning groups will provide lectures and seminars involving a combination of group activities, student led work, simulations, skills practice, discussion etc. The independent study provides opportunity for reading, library based and online research. The remote learning in the professional practice work place will help develop professional skills.

This module is designed to give students the skills they need to undertake training in a variety of contexts but also to take responsibility for overseeing training in their context. It looks at theoretical approaches to adult learning, including the range of learning styles and approaches to accommodating a range when training. It explores the whole process from identifying needs to design, delivery and evaluation and provides opportunities for students to develop their delivery skills. Students are assessed on their practical training skills. Participants on this module have the additional option of an accredited assessment for the Professional Trainer's Certificate.
