This Infoline discusses a variety of creative facilitation techniques to be used in training. It is based on the premise that workplace learning happens in a variety of environments, and therefore demands a multitude of training options. These environments include: on-the-job training, one-on-one instruction, classroom setting, synchronous online, and asynchronous online.
This Infoline will help you understand which techniques are best suited for each environment and how to implement each technique, listing the advantages and potential limitations each technique presents. It also provides advice and guidelines for adjusting to sudden changes in a training environment, ensuring the facilitator is always prepared.
