About
Note: This course requires an application. Accepted applicants will be notified at least 9 weeks before the course, at which point an invoice will be issued. Selection will be based on various criteria including position, geographic and programmatic diversity, and location.
The course provides individuals with an overview of the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to deliver effective training. The course is activity-based, participant-driven, and consists largely of facilitated discussions and activities in both small and large group settings.
As a major focus, the course requires participants to practice the following skills that are essential for successful delivery of training:
- Demonstration: Physically showing how something is used or done.
- Facilitation: Leading or orchestrating group activities or interaction to reach consensus, gain knowledge, or achieve a goal.
- Presentation: Disseminating information verbally and/or visually.
Learners will be asked to complete the following Pre-Course and In-Class work:
- Pre-course assessment (multiple choice and true or false questions based on course content).
- Selection of a PPT presentation from a list of several AFDO-provided presentations.
- Using the provided PPT presentation (including the embedded notes), prepare a 10-minute presentation to be delivered during the first day of the IST course.
- Learners will also need to rework their provided PPT presentation after the second day of class to present an improved 10-minute presentation during the third half-day of class.
