Training Levels

We partner with humanitarian responders from across the sector, supporting them in their professional development, enabling them to identify their learning needs or practice their skills, working to their own goals, in the context in which they work. We offer a tailored learning environment so humanitarians can make the difference needed.

The Transformation of Training programme is delivered through online, blended and in-person learning – trained facilitators can then adapt their learning to the context they work in. There are three key pathways within our Transformation of Training programme.

Foundation

This level is about helping trainers develop their skills. The course comprises three-day face to face training or virtually over six sessions.

Professional

This level supports lead trainers by modelling best practice techniques, enabling participants to improve their skills in designing and delivering training.

Advanced

This level supports master trainers looking to add a new dimension to their training careers. They will be approved to run the ToT programmes.

Transformation of Training Capability/Competency Framework

The Transformation of Training Competency and Capability framework has been collaboratively co-created across the humanitarian sector and the subsequent learning pathways and resources are built around this framework.

The framework outlines skills, knowledge and behaviours required to transform training. The capabilities are split into two overarching areas of Learning Design and Training Delivery, to help organisations and individuals distinguish between the two skill sets – you can be a fantastic facilitator, but you may not know all the stages and activities required in the design of the learning and vice versa!
