The current climate
Most companies monitor their costs and expenditure tightly, even more so in a recession or difficult economic climate. Almost all recruitment companies recognise that training is crucial when the market gets tough or tighter. And there lies the issue. “How do I train my staff when every penny I spend is vital to cashflow and profitability? Yet, if I don’t, then they won’t have the improved skills necessary to fight ourselves out of the situation.”
The reality
At RMI we’ve had numerous conversations lately whereby one or some of the attendees on courses (we run more open courses than almost any other provider in the UK) has been asked to deliver an in-house “mini training session” on the course and its content to their colleagues when they go back to the office. A great and cost effective idea in theory, yet it’s difficult to get the benefit of it in practice unless the attendee is skilled and comfortable at presenting and training. Yes, you can use photocopies of the handouts, and maybe even the original trainer will give you access to the PowerPoint slides to use, but at best an inexperienced presenter will deliver a heavily diluted version of the key points. The results are less than satisfactory, a waste of everyone’s time and, of course, you’re not maximising the return on investment from the initial paid for training session.
The solution
Let us train you or one or two of your team to be able to deliver in-house training sessions to a competent standard. Be it a Monday morning pep talk on the benefits of hitting the phone effectively or a half day outline on how to conduct client visits there are 5 objectives you need to achieve from any training session:
Motivation
Knowledge
Skill
Belief
Accountability
Without help and guidance, you or your in-house “guru”/trainer will at best be able to achieve two out of those five from their ‘trainees’ – that’s just 40%. Do you really want your staff performing to 40% of their potential? The solution is straightforward – let us train your designated trainer.
Course Content
Planning and preparing for a training session
Learning styles
Utilising all your tools at hand

Testing learning
NB Each delegate on the course will deliver 2 mini presentations to the group. Prior to the course, delegates will be sent an outline of a mini session they will conduct with the group on the day. Following the day’s training, they will then redeliver the ‘new improved version.’
