THE BUSINESS
There are five competency areas to be mastered in becoming an effective Trainer
The Training Business
The Five Competency Areas
Middling
You are given the overall aims
and objectives and have to
figure out the details of how to
meet them.
Easy
You are presented with a
detailed syllabus and the course
materials and you have to lead
people through them
In the easy and middling cases part of your work as a trainer has been done for you. In what follows,
therefore, we will consider how a professional trainer would deal with a tough job.
Training's Aims - lower and higher
By the end of a training session the knowledge, skills and/or attitudes (KSA) of the trainees will have
changed in some desirable direction. As a professional trainer you may be required and/or may wish to
aim lower or higher in this regard.
The lower level aim is that the trainee will have eaten the fish which was on offer ie they will have learned
something very particular and will have completed the assigned course work.
The higher level aim is that the trainee will have learned how to fish (ie will have learned how to learn) as
part of a fishing crew (ie she will have learned how to work effectively as part of a group).
Various lower level aims will be achieved in the process of achieving the higher level ones, therefore, in
what follows we will consider how the professional trainer would deal with higher level aims in a tough job.
The five main competencies of a professional trainer
A professional trainer is one who earns her living through training - it is her business. As such it is not
enough that she be a good trainer, she must also have a good head for business, especially if she is in
business on her own. The five main competency areas are set out with some elaborations in the following
table:

Hingston P (1992) The Greatest Little Business Book; Hingston Associates (Tel: 0764 62058)
Self Development
The motto here would be 'Do not unto others unless you have already done it to yourself'. Before using
some of the know-yourself and self-improvement ideas in this book on trainees, try them on yourself.
Look in particular at the section on 'Professional Formation' and fill out the xxx questionnaire.
Materials Production
The participants on this course will be presenting the 6 day course on xxx for which advance materials
have already been prepared. This area of competence will not therefore be considered. Participants may,
however, reflect on the materials which have been prepared for this course and for the 6 day course. Look
in particular at how the content is sequenced and signposted and at how much 'space' has been left on
each page.
The participatory production of materials during the workshops will be considered as part of the
professional aspects of workshop organisation.
Workshop Organisation
It was Napoleon who said that an army marches on its stomach - what are the feeding arrangements for
the workshop? And trainees cannot stick charts on the wall if there is nothing to stick them with - and they
won't even be there is they do not get the invitations on time. Such nitty gritty logistical details can make
or break a workshop. We will be looking at some systematic checklists.
The professional aspects of workshop organisation are the main focus of this one-day course. We will
consider the six main aspects of this ie Contextualisation, Aims, Objectives, Content, Methods &
Materials, and Feedback (Monitoring and Evaluation). Given that the first four of these have already been
designed for the six day course, we will focus mainly on the last two.
Workplace Visiting
There are no definite plans as yet for the trainers to make follow up visits to the trainees. This might,
however, come to pass in the future. We will thus look briefly at what might be involved in terms of
support/ facilitation/ counselling visits on the one hand and/or appraisal/ assessment/ evaluation visits on
the other.
And Study Skills
We will deal with study skills as part of the 'methods' section in the professional aspects of workshop
organisation. Only sloppy, lazy, hypocritical, second-rate trainers will preach them without first having
practised them!

Logistical Aspects
In preparing for the Logistical aspects of a Workshop you have to think about four things:
Contracts
Administrative Support
The Venue
Contracts
Someone will have called for the training to be done. It is useful to know what they are expecting of the
trainer. Are they expecting research, materials production, running workshops and/or follow up? What
time frame is being considered? How much money is available to produce materials, pay for workshop
costs and participants feeding and travel costs and to pay the trainer?
It is useful to negotiate the trainer's Terms of Reference (ToR) which set out in some detail exactly what
the trainer is expected to do and/or produce, to what standard, by when, and at what cost.
Administrative Support
If the trainer is external to the organisation then she will need to know how much administrative support
she can expect.
Who can she call upon for day to day advice and support?
Who is responsible for setting the timetable of events and for sending invitations?
Who deals with feeding and accommodation and with reimbursing travelling expenses of
participants?
Is clerical support available and if so how much and from whom eg stationery supplies, typing,
photocopying, collating and binding, purchasing materials and equipment needed for workshops?
The Venue
The training will take place in a building. Some buildings are more appropriate than others. Here is a
checklist of things to think about:
Heating
Lighting
is this adequate and are there blackout facilities if you need to show a film?
Electricity
where are the sockets, will you need an extension cable and adapter?
Furniture
are there enough chairs and tables and is it OK to shift them around?
Walls
is it OK to stick things on the walls or will you have to bring flip chart stands?
Equipment
Kitchen
can food be prepared at the venue (are there cups etc) or will they have to be brought
in?
Toilets
do they exist, are they clean, is there toilet paper, will they be open?
Access
is it easy to find or will participants need a map? Car parking? Disabled access?

Contextualisation
Contextualisation is a fancy word for the process of making sure that your training programme blends
easily and effortlessly into the local situation.
No two groups of trainees are ever exactly the same so, even if you have dealt with the topic many times
before, your materials will probably need fine tuning - if only to the extent of being able to give local
illustrative examples. The more that you can demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the details of
the local situation the more the trainees are likely to value what you say.
You may also discover that what the organisers want is not the same as what the trainees want or what
you feel that they really need - so you might have to act as go-between/ advisor as part of the process of
negotiating your Terms of Reference.
If you have good answers to each of the following questions then you can be confident that you are well
contextualised.
What does the Organisation want?
If there are no official terms of reference are you as the trainer clear about what is expected of you? If
not ask. (See Workshop Organisation - the Logistical Aspects)
What Administrative Support and Materials are already available?
Are you on your own or are there people who can help you?
What do the trainees know?
Has a needs analysis already been done (eg an output from a previous workshop)?
Can you visit some trainees in their workplace to get a better feel for their self defined training needs.
What about their customers? Is serious research required here?
Is there a need to brainstorm and conceptually map at the beginning of the workshop?
What does the trainer know?
What is the trainer's conceptual map before preparing for the workshop?
What reference materials are to be consulted? (Local and National)
Are there previous workshop agendas/outputs or research findings?
What literature should be addressed? (Written/Electronic; published/grey)
What videos & resource materials etc might be consulted
What materials are already available within the organisation?
Which local 'experts' might be usefully consulted?
What is the trainer's conceptual map after preparing for the workshop?
What are the aims and objectives of the workshop in terms of:
the desired changes in knowledge, skills and attitudes of the participants, and how will we know if we
have been successful?
the concepts developed and recorded and materials produced for use at future workshops and/or as
circulars, exemplars, Newsletter or Journal articles etc
Have the logistics been attended to?
Work your way systematically through the logistical aspects at an early stage.
Leaving things to the last minute can be very stressful.
Hand
Heart
Thinking
Knowledge
Doing
Skills
Feeling
Attitudes
How broad and how deep are you going to go during this course - is it for pre-school or
for university? Who are the learners and what is their level of experience of the topic?
Sequence
Pace
There are thousands of possible methods but it is useful to think of them as falling into two broad types:
Teacher centred
Learner centred
Didactic
Passive student
eg the Lecture
Participatory
Active student
eg project work
When assessment is used to 'grade' students it is a political tool. When assessment is used to give
feedback to the student (or the tutor) on the extent to which the objectives are being achieved so that she
can improve her performance - then it is a training tool.
All good trainers ensure that learners get a lot of feedback during the course of their learning - many small
but detailed corrections along the way are more useful than one big and generalised judgement at the
end!
AIMS
OBJECTIVES
CONTENT
A sequenced list of topics to be
covered with an indication of the
amount of time to be spent on
each
MONITORING & EVALUATION
MATERIALS
A parallel list of materials and
services that will be required for
each topic given the number of
participants
address their felt needs in a manner which suits their learning styles, and
build in plenty of variety so that you do not expect them to keep paying attention to a particular topic,
in a particular way for more than 20 minutes at a time.
We have looked at aims and objectives and learning styles elsewhere so here we will focus on the idea of
building variety into the programme.
The completely wrong way of doing things would be for the trainer to sit rigid in a chair and talk for four
hours in a monotonous and unexcited voice.
Variety can be added by changing the types of activity and by changing the social arrangements.
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, (ADHD), chronic, neurologically based syndrome characterised by any or all of
three types of behaviour:
hyperactivity,
distractibility, and
impulsivity.
Unlike similar behaviours caused by emotional problems or anxiety, ADHD does not fluctuate with emotional states.
Often diagnosed when a child begins school, ADHD is usually accompanied by learning difficulties and social
inappropriateness.
Treatment may include medication such as methylphenidate hydrochloride (Ritalin), which corrects neuro-chemical
imbalances in the brain; sugar intake is no longer considered to be a factor.
Symptoms may decrease after adolescence, although adults can also have ADHD.
Thinking
Doing
Feeling
Knowledge
Head
Thinking involves putting on your
thinking cap and doing headwork. It
requires you to be rational and logical
and to deal with the facts. You will use
your intelligence in a reasonable and
sensible manner such that you can be
pragmatic. You might even have to
crunch numbers.
Skills
Hand
Doing involves thinking on your feet
and walking the talk. You will be
practising what you preach. This may
involve being creative and artistic so
that you can make it look good and set
a mood or so that you can say it with
pictures rather than with words. It may
involve using your social skills during
activities such as games and role
plays. Or it may involve you in actually
making things from raw materials eg
toys for your OOSCC Club.
Attitudes
Heart
Feeling
involves
giving
attention to
your attitudes,
opinions,
beliefs and
values. Are
you clear
about your
passions and
phobias, your
prejudices
and
addictions.
How are your
points of view
influenced by
your urges,
itches,
cravings and
yens. What
drives you into
a rage and
makes you
furious.
18 Categories of Activities
There are three types of action and three basic kinds of social arrangement. These can be lined up on a
matrix to create 9 categories of workshop activity:
Thinking
Doing
Feeling
Individual
Small Group
Whole Class
But there is the concept of ETHOS - the idea of co-operative games where there are no losers. There is a
difference between a debate which forces a win/lose outcome and a discussion which leads to a win/win
outcome. So there are nine possible categories of competitive activities and nine possible categories of
co-operative activities - a total of 18 Categories of Activities.
ACTIVITY:
Put on your creative thinking cap and come up with examples to put in the eighteen boxes - you can
rake around in your experiential memory, look through this handbook for prompts and/or look in
books.
Here are some examples to get you started.
If you ask other people to help you but do not tell them what you are doing and keep the list to
yourself then this remains as a competitive individual thinking activity.
If you ask other people to help you, tell them what you are doing, and then share the results - it
becomes a co-operative small group activity.
If you get the group organised for systematic research and to write up the findings for
distribution to other people then it is a co-operative small group doing activity (- and people will
have feelings about it!)
THE METHODS
This Methods section is in four parts:
When you are planning a training session you have to decide what methods to use. There are basically
three options:
tell them
help them find out for themselves
ask them
The main options are shown below with some of the techniques which might be used.

Questionnaires
As a general rule people learn better when they are active and are able to participate in the learning
process. This is particularly true of skills (lectures about how to ride a bicycle?), and attitudes which are
notoriously caught rather than taught.
As a trainer you might as well say "Don't do as I say, do as I do", because that is what will happen
anyway!
Knowing the subject is not the same as knowing how to teach the subject.
What matters is not what the trainer has taught (input)
but rather what the trainee has learned (outcome).
The best teachers teach people rather than subjects.
If linkages were made between the categories (ie those best suited for younger children and those
for older ones etc) then the Care Worker would be better able to choose particular activities to match
the needs of particular children.
Helping people to better understand what they already know is the mental equivalent of tidying up a
playroom after a gang of kids has been in. There should be a place for everything and everything should
be in its place. The process of designing the storage system for the playroom is the equivalent of what is
called Interactive Mind Mapping. The following table maps the concept of Interactive Mind Mapping.
Brainstorming
Make a list of items surrounding
a 'seed' word
Linking
Describe how the categories link
to each other
The map, however, describes the process in much too tidy a way. In real life the stages blend together (eg
when a 'category' is brainstormed as an 'item') and there is much moving backwards and forwards (a
process called iteration) eg having invented a new category you may be reminded of items that you did
not think of earlier - no problem, add them: when you begin to map linkages you may realise that a
category is missing - no problem, add it - and then maybe reshuffle the items and/or add new ones.
In the pure 'emergent' form of concept mapping a Trainer would act simply as a process facilitator ie she
would not be interested in the content and structure of the eventual concept map. Her task would simply
be to help organise the brainstorming, categorising and linking processes.
Sometimes the intention of the Trainer will be to have the trainees understand the structure of a preexisting Concept Map eg Health and Safety regulations for Child Care facilities. In this case the same
technique can be used but the trainer would play a more active role in ensuring that the categories and
linkages which the class decides to use are the 'correct' ones. This need not be seen as cheating so long
as the trainer is honest about what she is trying to do. Hopefully most regulations do in fact 'make sense'
and it helps to promote understanding and ownership of them to have the trainees actively 'guess' what
they are rather than being expected to passively absorb them.
In the second case the end product is known in advance and a hand-out can be prepared before the
activity begins. In the first case the end product will remain a mystery until after the event and the task of
preparing the handout can be delegated to one of the trainees.
Brainstorming
The output from a brainstorm activity is a list of ideas related to a given seed word.
Results of a good brainstorm
Bad brainstorms are those which are locked into limited points of view. This can happen for various
reasons:
Nature
age, sex, IQ
social class, religion, language, rural/urban, level of education, experience
of life and work, hobbies and interests, occupation
happy/sad, relaxed/harassed, outgoing/shy, friendly or bossy chairperson
and/or participants
Nurture
Mood & Motivation
Invitations
There is no single correct composition for a brainstorm group as it could be called for many different
purposes. But the general principle would be to make it as mixed as practicable so as to avoid getting
trapped in a limited point of view.
There are many different ways to organise a brainstorm and the options are set out in the following table:
By post or Email
Pre-workshop activity
or homework
At a workshop
Individual
Sub groups
Whole group
The most common way is Type 7 where the Trainer supplies the seed word, participants shout out ideas
and somebody writes them on a flip chart. This has its uses but the table points to other ways of
brainstorming and you are invited to think through what would be involved in situations 1 to 6.
A useful variation is to have individuals make a personal list (eg a minimum of three items) to share with a
small group and then for the groups to report in plenary to generate a master list. This system has the
advantage of forcing everyone to make a contribution.
Given that Brainstorming often leads on to Categorising it is useful to have individual ideas written on
individual pieces of paper so that they can be sorted quite easily. Everyone in the room should be able to
read what is written on the sheets so think about the size of the paper and the thickness of the felt pens
that are to be used. Think also of how the pieces of paper are to be attached and reattached - drawing
pins, sellotape, blu-tak, post-it sheets?
How to get plenty of good ideas
Accept any idea that comes up without judging it in the initial stages - smile a lot!
Encourage people to be different and exciting - make appreciative noises!
Make it happen quickly so that people have gut reactions and thus liberate sub-conscious ideas
If none of that works try using prompts eg
How did they do it in the old days?
How would old or young people see it?
How would a macho male react?
How is technology changing things?
How is it different in Nigg?
Categorising
The output from a categorising session is a list of generally acceptable categories which is shorter than
the list of brainstorm items on which it is based.
Results of a good categorisation session
POSSIBILITIES
Past/present/future; day/night; summer/winter;
weekday/weekend
Indoor/outdoor; town/country; seaside/inland;
safe/dangerous
Buildings/equipment; budgeting/bookkeeping; staff
development
Old/young; male/female; special needs;
staff/customers/regulators
Positive/negative; rational/emotional; old fashioned/
innovative
Linking
The output from a linking session is a concept map showing how all the individual items and categories fit
together to make up the 'big picture' ie everybody has a good grasp of the overall situation such that there
are no loose pieces in the jigsaw; ie everybody is enlightened about the topic and will not thus be groping
around in the dark.
Results of a good linking session
All participants feel that (a) they have a good
understanding of the various parts of the issue/
topic/ system and of how they fit together and
interact and (b) can see possibilities for improving
the situation.
So far we have items which have been grouped into categories. The task now is to draw a picture or map
of how these are interrelated or linked. This involves arranging the categories in some kind of order and
then drawing lines between them to show the linkages.
Given that you might be mapping issues, topics or systems which have physical, biological, psychological,
sociological, administrative, financial, legal or whatever components, there is no single correct way of
linking them but some common patterns with examples are listed below:
Principle
Input/ process/ output
Before/ during/ after
Feedback loop - self regulation
procedure
Cause/ effect chain
Critical path
Catalytic input - small input has large
impact
Opportunity cost
Boundaries & autonomy
Purpose & goal directedness
Example
Efficient & effective procedures? - Remember GIGO garbage in, garbage out. If it's not broken don't fix it.
PIME - Plan, Implement, Monitor & Evaluate. Necessary
sequences 'Can't do x till y is finished'. Who does what by
when? Who checks?
Heating turns itself off when it is hot enough. Work well and
get promoted. Be calm when others are excited.
Multi-cause to single effect; single cause to multi-effect etc
Beyond simple mindedness
Where is the weakest link in the chain? Rush hours - Fuses
Counselling, staff training, better filing system, technology
If we didn't do x what else could we spend the money on value for money. A stitch in time saves nine. Deal with
acorns not oak trees.
How does this particular system fit into larger systems what can it change without asking permission from above?
The vision thing. The 'Why' question. What are the
'intentions' of the various actors? How are these
harmonised?
When you move through brainstorming and categorising to linking you are going from the parts towards
the whole ie you are systematically figuring out how the details fit into a bigger picture. Having eventually
reached the big picture, however, you will find that (a) it is part of an even bigger picture and (b) that some
of the categories and items no longer mean what they did before. This is not a problem - change them.
This going backwards and forwards between details and the big picture is the process which earlier we
called 'iteration', and it is essential if thinking and organisations are to stay in touch with a changing world.
It is never as clean cut as the models suggest but, in essence, the process of understanding the world
goes from parts to whole and then from the whole back to the parts and so on - indefinitely. This is how
life lives itself - this is evolution.
The good thing about being a human rather than a worm is that by taking thought you can direct
evolution,
you can dream the future and then make it happen.
Go for it!
A common training method is when the trainer talks and the trainees sit and listen. This has its uses but
here we will consider some of the more interactive methods which make it possible for trainees to share
ideas through discussion. (co-loquium = together talk)
Mature trainees tend to have experience of the topic of their training. This experience is a valuable
training resource which is why we want to share it.
You might argue that there is no need for a trainer at all - just put a bunch of mature people together for a
while and leave them to share their ideas.
The argument here is that when the trainer adds structure to the sharing-through-discussion process then
the amount of sharing and understanding that takes place is much higher than it would be if the trainees
were just left to blether amongst themselves.
The mood of a good discussion is that everybody wins - everybody puts something in and everybody gets
something out. In the end people may agree to disagree but they do so in a friendly way and after having
understood each other's point of view.
'Different strokes for different folks' is a key guide to action in the Caring business. The question is not
whether something is right or wrong but rather whether or not it is useful in the context in which it is used.
The mood is not, "You must do such and such," but rather, "You might like to try such and such because
we have found it to be very successful".
In the 'real' world, however, there are many you musts. There are Health and Safety and various other
Legal requirements. Colloquia can help. Trainees can share their problems and successes and their fears
and triumphs such that everyone is more comfortable in dealing with bureaucratic requirements.

TOOLBOX
A Toolbox of thinking skills
People are not usually taught how to think in school. It is assumed that the clever ones can think and that
the thick ones cannot. This is rubbish.
The clever ones are called clever because they can pass exams but this involves memory and being able
to respond correctly to what is put in front of them. This involves fairly low levels of a limited number of
very basic thinking skills.
There are many different kinds of thinking skills and most of them are easy to master - the problem is that
few people have mastered them and even fewer bother to use them.
As a trainer your toolbox of thinking skills should be jam packed and you should be giving them away and
acquiring new ones all the time. The good thing about ideas and skills is that you can give them away but
still hold on to them - it is like drinking from a cup that never runs dry. And your toolbox should be made of
rubber - the more you put into it the bigger it gets!
The list of thinking skills is endless - they can be used to create new ones! Three particularly useful ones
are described here and this is followed by references to four other mental ironmongers.
Tell it to your Granny
Imagine an old granny on the far side of Lewis who speaks only the Gaelic and has not yet been
introduced to electricity. She has heard about 'computers' and asks you to explain what they are.
This exercise tests your understanding of a concept because you cannot use the jargon. You have to
explain using 'plain English' (or Gaelic if you have it). In the process of trying to explain in a simple way
you invariably come up with new ways of looking at the situation.
Write a script for two people discussing the topic
This is a variation on 'Tell it to your Granny'. The difference is that you are free to choose who the two
people are (old/young, male/female, town/country, rich/ poor etc) and you have to imagine yourself inside
the heads of both characters so that you can put words in their mouths.
This exercise has the same advantages as the previous one with the addition that you have to be clear
about at least two different perspectives on the topic being discussed. The process of trying to write the
script can do wonders for your understanding of the topic.
State the History of the Topic
When was the very first OOSCC Club established and how has the idea progressed since then?
This exercise might involve you in doing some research - either in books or through talking to people.
Everything has a history which tells how it has changed through time. When did it change? Why did it
change? By looking into these issues you come to see that the present is not like the past and you are
thus more open to considering a different future.
These three techniques are from the list given in 'A Good Thinker's Toolbox' which is based on Margaret
Boden's Book The Creative Mind.
Use Lateral Thinking
Sometimes you have to use creative thinking to come up with new ideas. Edward de Bono's technique
called Lateral Thinking helps your mind to escape from its normal ruts and to see new possibilities and
directions. There are four main strategies each of which has many techniques.
The Four Strategies
An Example
The two appendices 'Lateral and Vertical Thinking' and 'Techniques of Lateral Thinking' give a more
detailed explanation and also give the titles of some of De Bono's books.
Draw a Mindmap
A Mindmap is a drawing which represents what is going on in your mind while you make notes, gather
ideas for reports and/or try to be creative. There will be units (for things, ideas or events) joined up by
lines which show how the units interact.
A mindmap is thus an interactive mind map but in Tony Buzan's version of the idea greater emphasis is
put on keywords and on the use of images and colour to enhance understanding, creativity and memory.
Reference Tony Buzan (1989) Use both sides of your brain; Plume. This book includes an easy to read
explanation of right and left brain thinking.
He first wrote the book in 1930 and my copy is of the 11th edition which came out in 1967. It is an all time
classic! Here are the first 7 of his 38 dishonest tricks with their countermeasures.
