Introduction

The CIEH Level 3 Award in Training Skills and Practice is aimed at those who want to develop practical training skills and/or meet the minimum training requirement for registering to deliver CIEH vocationally related qualifications. It extends basic training techniques by encouraging a dynamic and flexible approach to training delivery, taking into account some of the recent advances in accelerated learning and Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP). Completing this award will equip candidates with the basic knowledge and skills required to develop and deliver training programmes, provide learning support and take responsibility in managing the learning process.

The program provides an opportunity to understand and practice a professional approach to training design and delivery, with a structured syllabus and assessment opportunity. It is ideal for anyone who needs to either understand the basics of training practice, or wants to refine their training techniques. The programme will involve a significant amount of hands-on activity with additional work outside the sessions to develop the content and materials for assessment (Micro Teach).

The qualification is designed for anyone who is new to training or existing trainers/teachers who want to develop their skills and provide evidence of professional development.
