Trainers Development Programme
Sponsored by DoP&T
CONCEPT PAPER
Training of Trainers:
Recognizing the importance of trainers in the training function, the Training Division
started the Trainer Development Programme in the early 1990s. Initially faculty members
of various training institutions were developed as Master Trainers and Recognized User of
various training of trainers (ToT) packages in collaboration with the Thames Valley
University of U.K. Over a period of time indigenous mechanisms were evolved for
developing a cadre of professional trainers and resource persons in the country to create a
cascading and multiplier effect. The programme has gone a long way in embedding the
Systematic Approach to Training (SAT) into the process of designing and imparting
effective training to government officials. Currently, the following programmes are
sponsored under Trainer Development Programme at training institutions across the
country: -
(1) Introduction to SAT Course:
This is a short, intensive Package with inputs from all the four packages consisting
Systematic Approach to Training (SAT) Cycle namely, Training Needs Analysis (TNA),
Design of Training (DoT), Direct Trainer Skills (DTS), Evaluation of Training (EoT) with
scope for individual and team exercises/activities. The complete training material including
visuals of all the four Courses will be provided to the participants in soft copy. The Target
Group envisaged for the Combined Package consists of Heads of Training Institutions,
senior officers joining in training institutions/departments, Heads of district-level training
institutions, occasional trainers/guest faculty, etc.
(2) Direct Trainer Skills (DTS) course:
The aim of the Direct Trainer Skills (DTS) course is to provide an opportunity for the
trainers to develop their basic instructional skills to enable them to make an effective
contribution to their institution’s training courses.
(3)Evaluation of Training (EoT):
The Evaluation of Training (EoT) course establishes a framework within which decisions
can be made. Should a particular course continue to be run? How can it be improved? What
response has been made to TNA consultancy report? How effective is distance learning in
meeting government’s intention to provide training for all? These are typical questions
asked when carrying out EoT.
(4) Facilitation Skills Course:
The aim of the Facilitation Skills Course is to help participants develop an understanding
about the process of Facilitation and to develop some of the core skills. The Course
provides and introduction to the concept and processes of facilitation and an opportunity to
develop core skills. The Facilitation skills course is intended to help participants develop
their understanding of the key processes within facilitation and to develop competencies
relevant to the role of a Facilitator. This is not a ‘taught’ course. Rather, it is a series of
practical learning activities. Participants are therefore expected and encouraged to take an
active role and responsibility for their own learning and for the learning of the group by
contributing to all learning activities. Tutor, peer and individual feedback will also be given
during the workshop to support skills development.
(5) Experiential Learning Tools (ELT)
Earlier DTS-II - Experiential Learning Tools course aims at equipping the participants
with skills relevant to the learner-centered training-process through the mode of
experiential learning; particularly in the application of identified training methodologies
namely Case Study, Field Visit and Role Play; besides appropriately using Skill
Development Exercises.
(6) Mentoring Skills:
The Mentoring Skills course is intended to help participants develop competencies to carry
out mentoring tasks, commensurate with their role responsibilities and status in their
respective organisations. This is not a ‘taught’ course. Rather, it is a series of practical
learning activities - mostly simulated by means of a case study. Participants are there for
expected to take active responsibility both for their own learning and by contributing to
group activities. The aim of the Mentoring Skills Course is to help selected members of
staff to acquire an understanding of the concept of mentoring, and the skills to carry out the
duties of a mentor. The course provides an introduction to the concept and processes of
mentoring; it also includes an intense opportunity to acquire essential skills.
