Purpose of the Course

The purpose of the Trainer’s EDGE course is to provide and help develop the platform skills of a trainer. This course is intended to “train the trainer” on behaviors and resources while offering hands‐on experience in methods and media. You will have the opportunity to be in front of the group. The group will offer feedback that will help you improve your skills as a trainer. Feedback is a gift. We want to make sure it is given in a positive, helpful way.

 

Trainer’s EDGE course is to provide and help develop the platform skills of a trainer. It is meant to supplement the practice offered through Wood Badge and NYLT staff development, with a focus on the participant, while raising the level of skill a trainer brings to the staff experience. Only practice can polish these skills, but this course is intended to “train the trainer” on behaviors and resources while offering hands‐on experience in methods and media.
