Industry
research tells us that by far the major influencing factor
on the quality and value of a course is not the content
in itself, but the ability of the course instructor to
present that content and facilitate the learning experience.
To achieve this, the course instructor needs to be highly
skilled in both the technical subject area concerned,
and in Training delivery.
Many training companies employ full-time trainers,
who have little time to keep their technical skills
up-to-date. Some use technical experts who have very
limited time and support to develop and maintain Training
delivery skills. To guarantee high quality Training
this problem must be addressed.
At Acuma we deliver “Consultancy Led Training”.
We have Training consultants who are fully trained in
Training delivery, and are scheduled to take regular
assignments working on customer projects in a technical
consultancy role, to maintain their technical skills.
In addition, we have an “accredited instructor”
programme whereby we train and support a number of technical
consultants in the skills of Training delivery, so that
they can teach courses on a part-time but regular basis.
All our courses are led by consultants with both technical
and Training skills, who can deliver Training to the
very highest standards, and can provide a practical
insight into the components of each course, through
their own direct involvement with our customer’s
projects. Their rich project experience enables them
to help the learners focus on how the course contents
can be put into practice in their own workplace to business
advantage, thus providing the optimum business benefits
to the learners.
