• can be gathered in various ways, but
typically respondents are asked to tell a story about an experience they have had.

- Soft-skills training and technical
training are very different types of training. TRAINERS ARE LIKE WINE-THEY GET BETTER OVER TIME
It takes lots of time and experience
to be a really good trainer. Be patient. You will have your fair share of times when you don’t perform well. GET TO KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE PRIOR TO THE TRAINING It is very important to have a firm understanding of who is going to be in training session KNOW THE MATERIAL It is very important that you have a thorough understanding of the material prior to presenting. Review your material prior to the training until you know it inside out. Is one thing to understand material and another to actually teach or present it. DON’T MAKE UP ANSWERS
You will quickly lose the
credibility of your participants if you provide answers that are not true. USE DIFFERENT FORMATS WHILE PRESENTING
• Wear good shoes
• Be prepared
• Use stories and experiences
DELIVERING THE TRAINING PROGRAM • Introducing the trainer and the training session • Using ice breakers and energizers
• Types of ice breakers introductions such as asking
each trainee to introduce him or her, or having a scavenger hunt in which trainees are given a list of questions and are asked to mingle with the other trainees to obtain answers to the questions. USING CASE STUDIES TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE Once employees have received the information they need through lecture, It is important that they be able to apply what they have learned. USING SIMULATION EXERCISE TO PRACTICE NEW SKILLS Whereas case studies are effective in applying knowledge and learning problem solving skills, simulation exercises allow the trainee to practice newly learned skills. PRACTICING INTERPERSONAL SKILLS THROUGH ROLE PLAY • Role play allows the trainee to perform necessary interpersonal skills by acting out simulated roles. • Role play is used in many types of training situations, from supervisors and practicing performance appraisal reviews to sales clerks taking customer orders. CONDUCTING ON-THE-JOB TRAINING • Coaching – is another popular method of training new employees and typically takes one of two forms : experienced employees working with new employees and professional coaches who work with all employees
• Mentoring – is a form of coaching that has recently received
much attention.
