3 exciting days that could change your whole perspective on training

WHY participate in this amazing programme?

Well ... If you would like to receive feedback like this? ...

Using the simple but highly effective "TOM" models, I went straight back to the office and completely reconstructed a number of training sessions into a more user-friendly manner for delegates. I was astounded - a much over-used word, but in this case, true - to find that the material I presented was not only understood by the sales teams, but they could remember it, and quote it back to me weeks later.

We used to spend about 90 minutes on this session, with an uptake of about 20% retention. What's the difference now by using the TOM techniques? Retention rates are at about 90%, and the process is explained within 5 minutes: Retention and learning increased - actual training time lessened. A double result in any trainer’s book!"

On a more personal note, I used some of the techniques with a neighbour’s 9 year old daughter. Her reaction? "Learning is so ‘cooool’ when you do it like that!" Praise indeed.

Thank you! The place is buzzing! – Adele Doak, Phillips

"Without exception the response from everyone on the course has been fantastic. I have already put it into operation in a course and to quote "it's a hit!" We all really enjoyed it and learnt from it and I´m confident that training will become something to look forward to rather than a chore. To sum up... fantastic and thank you!" – Bridget, Boden (clothing)

It was great to be able to implement elements straight away without having to go away and re-formulate our courses - which so many other training devices necessitate" – Jane Edis, Training Officer, West Midlands Probation Service

THE ULTIMATE "TRAIN-THE-TRAINER" COURSE!

WHAT is it?

In three dynamic, inspirational and confidence-building days participants will learn to design and deliver training sessions in a brain-stimulating way. They will enhance their toolkits using En-Lightning Training techniques such as Memory Linking, Multiple Intelligences, Brain Gym and NLP to achieve results that have that elusive ‘wow’ factor. These are not ‘trainers tricks’ courses - they take you into a new realm of understanding the learning / training process and how to work with it. Training trainers is what we do best.

Rather than teach a variety of games and processes which could be reproduced, we will focus on the basic principles of creativity and invention so that participants become adept at creating their own activities set in their own style. En-Lightning Training workshops don’t produce clones, but focus on utilising a trainer’s natural ability to develop unique ideas for turning a variety of materials into enjoyable and effective training sessions.

We will also focus on "the art of provocation" - how to nudge people out of their comfort zones and still retain their trust.

WHAT'S on the agenda? Lots of PRACTICE! But in particular ...

• Discovering how to have fun and deliver stimulating training sessions
• The Power of TOM – using Trust, clear Objectives and strong Motivation
• Memory Linking - Dramatically improve memory using Words / Images / Feelings / Actions
• Creating and Maintaining the optimum Learning States
• Using the Magic of Multiple Intelligences – learn to fully utilise them in training
• Halve training time and double ability to recall and change behaviours – brief = powerful!
• Outcome is King – learn how to set inspirational training objectives
• Setting Visualised Inspiring Specific Time-bound Assessable objectives
• Training Plan - the plan works if you work the plan – Introduce > Train > Practice > Review > Test
• The power of music and movement in providing a stimulating learning and training environment
• Communication Skills – Listening/speaking, asking/telling – ‘Watch your Language!’
• Feedback - high performance fuel for champion trainers
• Design and Deliver your own new session

WHAT else do you get for your investment?

• All course materials including a comprehensive workbook and a small box of essentials for creating high quality En-Lightning Learning events
• The opportunity to learn, practice and share new skills and ideas with other training and learning professionals
• Scientific back-up – if you want/need it - for all the techniques and concepts we will be using. But essentially we will be there to help you put it all into practice.
• You will completely design (or re-design) a session and deliver it to a group of your peers and in an En-Lightning Training way.
• Post-course phone or email support should you want or need it
• A whole bunch of ‘stuff’ (technical term) you can use the very next day PLUS you’ll have 3 days of FUN (unless you don’t want to)
• The opportunity to apply to become a Licensed TOM Consultant

The price includes all the above, a three course lunch and refreshments throughout each day. Please note: Accommodation is available at or near the venue, but this will be at the delegate’s expense. The reason for this is that we find many delegates live close enough to the venue to commute.

More ...WHY do this course?

If you are a trainer or you manage trainers, this course will enable you to:

• Train Faster – multi-sensory sessions speed learning and behaviour change and save money
• Create enjoyable sessions – fun and stimulating learning experiences encourage participants to return
• Train more effectively – skills learned are recalled easier, stay longer and change behaviours

‘You will learn to create enjoyable and stimulating sessions where you can train twice the content in half the time with better recall.’

Participants in this lively and activity based workshop will leave with a clearer understanding of the principles of En-Lightning Training and numerous tips on how to deliver interesting and effective training sessions and presentations. By the end of the two days participants will have actually re-designed ‘and presented’ some of their own material. Working together on the workshop activities will assist them to actually ‘feel’ more confident – whether from ‘trainer’ or ‘designer’ background. As the course has a very practical base this new confidence has the effect of carrying over into the workplace. In addition participants will acquire simple checklists for ensuring interesting and engaging training sessions that are easy to learn, recall and apply.

WHO is this course for?

Trainers, Presenters, Parents, Teachers, Consultants, Team Leaders, Department Heads, Engineers, Managers, Executives, Co-ordinators, Entrepreneurs… in fact, anyone who needs to get their ideas across to someone else.

Whether you are new to training or you have been training for a long time, we’re sure we have something to offer you. We have had trainers with 20 years experience completely revamp their training style with En-Lightning Training skills.

‘I am a new trainer… …the confidence the course has given me, is probably my biggest plus. I was pleased that within a matter of days I was able to give a presentation to my peers without much preparation time and while under, what felt like extreme pressure!!. I will certainly be taking this new found confidence into the classroom!’ – Trevor Hawke

WHY our methods work

1. Emotional Content
Somehow we have to have our emotions involved to facilitate the consolidation of memory and the application of concepts / ideas. Medical science still doesn’t have a firm handle on exactly how this memory process works, but several things have started to become clear. We have to be able to ‘see ourselves’ doing it (whatever it is) which triggers off the ‘feeling’ of doing it – which is of course, physiologically, almost the same as doing it.

The biggest challenge for any training is to make the (what seems like) Quantum Leap from experiencing it in the training room to experiencing the same feelings and results in the workplace. En-Lightning training has been successful at achieving this leap by focussing on workshop activities, exercises and materials that stimulate participant’s brains so that they feel like they have fully experienced the new behaviour or desired behaviour change.

2. Show, tell, do and teach
Our En-lightning Training workshops are designed not only to impart accelerated teaching skills to participants, but to also be a showcase for the concepts being taught. We will continually ask participants to be ‘in-frame’, as part of the workshop, and ‘out-frame’ as objective observers of the process.

WHERE can you attend?

Please check our What’s on page for the next scheduled Open Workshop.
