Course: Training Facilitator
Duration: 4 Days
The course requires that learners develop portfolios of evidence in their own time and submit it to Ndzalama Competency Learning for assessment within 90 days of completion after the initial workshop.This course is designed to update participant’s facilitation skills. During the three-day workshop the facilitators will model effective participatory training skills. The participants meet 8 hours a day including time for technical presentations, group discussion, and hands-on participation in small-group and individual activities, role-plays and case studies. The participants will be assessed on training skills using a checklist and will be provided with feedback. At the end of the course the each participant will have produced a specific training skills development plan. The role of a facilitator is to:
- Plan and prepare for facilitation

Learning Method
Learners are required to participate fully in group and individual learning activities throughout the workshop. Learners are also encouraged to identify and express their specific learning needs and to contribute freely from their own experience. During the two day contact session, the facilitator also focus on change management and motivational aspects, as we’ve identified these issues as key areas of SAQA and implementing the NQF.
