Train the trainer courses - which is best?

eric_elle

I'm looking to do the fetac level 6 train the trainer course. There are lots of options however ranging from €650 to €950

• dorset college
• http://www.progressivecollege.com
• chevron training

Are all these places selling the exact same thing? Is the qualification valued the same regardless?

Any advice appreciated

If you are willing to wait a few weeks you can do the course through Fas

I too am interested in doing this course, will it be offered by FAS? Does anyone have any additional details?

Thanks in advance

FAS doesn't run this course themselves. Instead you have to 'buy' it off external vendors. Kind of a farce if you ask me.

Some of the colleges of further education in Dublin ran it last year.

Hi,

I have done the course with the college of progressive education and I have to say it was very well taught. I think it's important to pick a TTT course that is not run over 5 days straight. There is alot to absorb and what I liked about it was that they give you a 2 week break in between so you are not overburdened with work. I was extremely prepared after doing the course and am now doing training in an area I love. Many companies are doing this and are just out to make a quick buck and they fly though the course. I was really happy with Progressive.

This sounds so good it could nearly be an advertisement :rolleyes:

I did this through the Back to Education Scheme - discovered what they were teaching on the TTT course very few of the other tutors in the college put into operation in their own teaching methods. Good course - but I wish some tutors would 'teach' instead of 'tell', if you know what I mean. Having said that, I did have a couple of great tutors too.

am currently about to do the foundation diploma in training and education via NUIG,
its 2 x 2 day work shops,
they do it in regional centers to accommodate people,
I have heard good things about it!

Just thought i wud throw it out there as an option!
You get a reduction in fees if unemployed.
