About this learning event

This training of trainers is designed for a smaller group of participants who will learn how to design and facilitate dynamic and engaging learning and knowledge sharing activities. We will discuss critical elements needed for the successful delivery of the knowledge sharing activity, the role of different learning styles in the learning process, the principles of effective public speaking as well as the importance of verbal and non-verbal communication.
