HR Club organizes a workshop on ‘How to become a successful trainer?’
Ramani Venkat , Director of Varnaaz conducted a workshop on the topic ‘How to become a successful trainer’, on February 3rd 2015. He addressed the students of both first and second year MBA along with the director and faculty members of the institution. He quoted, that Training is a profession and it requires constant energy output. If you get tired quickly, become discouraged easily, or become frustrated if things do not go according to plan, training may not be a good career option.
He further said that Training is definitely not the same as teaching. While teaching has always been associated with the ‘knowledge component’ learnt through academic interventions, training focuses on the ‘application of knowledge’ through skill-based interventions and other intellectual, manual and hands-on ways of perfecting learning. Hence, training is synonymous with learning for precision and performance to accomplish specialised tasks in a wide range of job roles.
However, it also combines the process of teaching and there are many more attributes of a trainer that make them effective in their profession. Effective training is all about balancing the ‘theory’ and ‘practice’ parts of learning through real-life examples, real-workplace exposure and a vision for self-discovery.
