The Step into Training Workshop at a Glance
As AI changes the content and learning design landscape, we are looking to find our future niche. Depending on who we are today and what we seek for our future, we find ourselves exploring options. In Creative Agni’s recent “Resurrect your Creativity” workshop, we discussed the importance of rejuvenating and powering up our critical thinking and creativity.
In past, trainers learned instructional design so that they could craft great training plans and powerup their training delivery. IDs, eLearning content designers, and technical writers who have already spent years perfecting the skill of creating great content, should find out if the time has come when they step out of the shadows and connect with their audience.
What will be discussed?
- Why training could be your next calling?
- What skills and traits differentiate a trainer from other learning professionals?
- Training – Why is it a strong potential pivot for you?
- Persona, Charisma, and Competence – Demystified
- Training to be a trainer who makes a difference
