Gray Training

Why do I need this?

You have just written an important business document. Before you email it to the client, you send it to your manager for comment. It comes back full of red-penned comments and criticisms. Sound familiar?

You want to understand why your hard-chosen words and carefully constructed sentences are not acceptable – and you want to know how to improve them.

How will I learn?

We begin with a quick pre-course analysis of your writing. We then shape the focus and experience of the learning around you/your learning team’s needs. You will find, to your amazement, that business writing is actually easy – if you know how!

What are my learning options?

Our business writing training is available for companies as a workshop (either online or in-house) or for individuals via one-on-one coaching sessions.

Why do I need this workshop?

Have you been asked to join the assessment team in your company? Or are you planning to strike out on your own as a learning consultant? Being an accredited assessor is a must!

How will I learn?

We begin by exploring the assessment landscape, unpacking the stages of assessment. You will then explore the process of planning, conducting and reporting on assessment through a series of interactive exercises.

This is NOT a sit passively and listen type workshop! We practise the tricky skills of fair assessment through a series of roleplays, giving you the chance to make mistakes and learn from them. Best of all, you build your Portfolio of Evidence as you go.

Develop Great Learning Material
7-8 October 2021 (Plan & Design Workshop)
27-29 October 2021 (Develop Workshop)

This programme is aimed at the trainer, instructional designer or consultant who needs to develop outcomes-based learning material quickly and effectively.

Investing time in planning and designing the learning materials for a course cuts development time by at least a third. It allows you to make informed decisions in advance, preventing costly reworking and redevelopment of material.

On this programme, you master the skills of developing a detailed design matrix (or blueprint) for your course. The design matrix bridges the gap between unit standards analysis, occupational analysis (finding the relevant facts about your workplace needs) and development (creating the learning material). It ensures accurate and relevant material to meet your learners’ needs.

This programme covers unit standard 10299: Design learning programmes and related learning materials. (NQF 6, 20 credits).

This programme is split into two workshops:
1 - Plan & Design (2 days)
2 - Develop Outcomes-based Learning Material (3 days)
