• Up to your team to take advantage• Ask your PM to co-facilitate a session with you when

he/she is visiting with your team!

Why the new format?• Empowers you to deliver training yourself to

your team when you need it• It allows your team to adjust training based on

your own team’s needs• It allows you to break up the training from one

or two days to take place over a period of multiple weeks or even months

• Best way to learn something is to teach it to someone else

What will each session include?• PowerPoint slides• Facilitator’s guides• References, resources and appendices related

to the training program• Experiential training activities

Important Information• Enactus in a Box will be ready for launch

sometime over the summer• It will be hosted on our new website currently

being constructed• Teams are recommended in setting goals with

their Program Managers in which sessions they are going to deliver, and when (the earlier in the school year the better)

Adult Learning Principles• Adults are internally motivated and self-

directed• Adults bring life experiences and knowledge to

learning experiences• Adults are goal oriented• Adults are relevancy oriented• Adults are practical• Adult learners like to be respected

Preparation for a training event• What are the steps that you should take in

getting prepared for a training event?

Best Practices• Confirm everything (logistics) before the

session• Ask participants prior to the session for topics

that they’d like to learn about• Arrive early to get everything set-up• Over prepare• Master the content

While you are training • What are some examples of great training that

you have attended in the past? What made it so great?

• What are examples of training that you did not enjoy? What could have been improved?

Best Practices• Establish the ground rules

• Example: Design Alliance• Start with an icebreaker activity• Keep the vast majority of the “tough” content

in the middle of the training session• End with an activity that gets the participants

to apply what they just learnt
