This dynamic four-week programme has been designed for trainers and facilitators at any stage of their career looking to embed Brain Friendly Learning tools and techniques into their training practice. Whether you are a seasoned trainer looking for a refresher, train as part of your role or are brand new to training, there is something for everyone in this programme!

This programme will provide you with an extensive range of tools, techniques and resources that will build your skills and confidence in designing and delivering Brain Friendly Learning content. The programme will cover tools and techniques that are relevant whether you are training in the virtual or face-to-face environment.

How the programme works…

The programmes will have a maximum number of 12 participants to ensure you can experience first-hand, the impact of Brain Friendly Learning and have ample opportunity to experiment and apply the learning to your own training sessions. We have found 12 is an ideal number to help facilitate connections, conversations and provide maximum peer support.

 

  • Each session is 2.5 hours.
  • Each session will be recorded – so if you can’t attend one session you can view the recording in your own time.
  • All participants will have access to our Learning Management platform Giraffepad. Through this platform you will be able to access the recordings from each session, pre-learning for each session, powerpoint slides, handouts, templates and other resources referenced in the programme.
  • You will also be able to message Annie and fellow participants directly.
