Executive Summary

Introduction:

The goal of the Training of Trainers (ToT) process is to give new trainers the background

knowledge, skills and practical experience. The Training of Trainers (ToT) model is intended to

engage master trainers in coaching new trainers that are less experienced with a particular topic

or skill, or with training overall. A ToT workshop can build a pool of competent instructors who

can then teach the material to other people.

Training design and content:

The training was designed based on the principles of andragogy and originally derived from

the principles of Systematic Approach to Training (SAT). The training methodology included

an ideal mixture of classroom lectures, field visit, case studies and peer learning. The learning

atmosphere encouraged the participants to discuss and share knowledge and issues thus

paving way for participatory learning. Broad topics covered were:

• Systematic approach to Training.

• Basics of Training:

1. Behaviour, What, Why, When.

2. Performance Problem and its Dimensions.

3. Systematic approach to Training.

4. Four ways of learning.

• Learning and Training:

1. Adult Learning Principles.

2. Writing Training Objectives

3. Feedback as a development tool.

4. Education Learning and Training.

• Introduction to Training need analysis.

• Introduction to Design of Training and Design Brief.

• Design of Training: Key Components.

• Evaluation of Training:Basics.

• Easterby-Smith, Hamblin and Kirkpatrick Model of evaluation of Training.

• Direct Trainer Skills: Concept, terminology and Lecture as a training method.

• Field visit as training method.

• Review of field visit as a training method.

• Practice based Micro sessions on Lecture Method.

• Review of Lecture as a Training method and More Training methods suitable for ToT

in Forestry.

The inaugural session was chaired by Shri R.P. Singh, IFS, Director, Directorate of Forest

Education, Dehradun and the valedictory session was chaired by Shri Rakesh Kumar, Former
