Training is important to an individual to enhance his knowledge and skills and be equipped for the work he is about to embark. A training agenda is helpful to the trainer or facilitator engaged for the training, as the facilitator is tasked to meet the training objective(s). A training agenda will guide the facilitator on the required training materials and the mode of presentation at the training.
Hence your training agenda template header may have the following information:
* Training Title
* Training Objective(s)
* Training Date & Time
* Venue
* Number of Participants
* Resources required (computers, LCD projector, paper, files, stationery)
* Facilitator
The above information gives an overview of the training for the preparation to be conducted.
The body of the Training agenda template may contain columns of the following information:
* Activity/Session
* Time
* Presentation Method
* Resources
* Closing
* Feedback/Evaluation
The Activity/Session column lists out further details to remind the facilitator what is required to be presented such as Welcome & Introduction, Ice Breaker, Session Proper with its objective and Resources.
The Activity/Session column usually lists 2-4 training sessions with Tea Breaks and Lunch break in between according to the time, for a full day training. Each day of training should be listed on separate pages for convenience.
A training agenda template can also include closing sessions at the end of each session or at the end of the day. The feedback or evaluation section is a good reminder for the facilitator to receive input on the effectiveness of the training conducted.
Consider the attached sample template for your convenience.
