Train the Trainer: Curriculum Planning to Engaged Delivery to Participant-Centered Practice is a hands-on workshop designed for anyone responsible for designing and delivering trainings, orientations, or learning experiences. Whether you're updating a required staff workshop, creating a new volunteer training, or building a professional development series, this session will walk you through the full training lifecycle - from identifying participant needs to applying adult learning principles and instructional design frameworks like ADDIE and Bloom’s Taxonomy.

In this session, you’ll learn how to develop clear and outcome-driven learning objectives, select instructional strategies to engage different types of learners, and plan content using a person-centered approach to deliver content that meets the needs of your audience. We will look at how to create engaging activities to support knowledge retention and create participant-centered experiences, whether you're training in person or online. We’ll also cover techniques to reduce facilitation anxiety and improve engagement, even in trainings within mandatory settings.

Through group work, reflection, and sample materials, you'll leave with actionable tools you can use right away. You'll analyze how to scaffold learning for deeper understanding, manage group dynamics, and build your personal trainer toolkit. Whether you're brand new to training or looking to refresh, this workshop will give you the skills and confidence to design effective, engaging, and person-centered learning environments.
