Course Description:
In today’s high tech, fast paced world, having content knowledge and teaching experience is only a small part of being an effective trainer.

This course is designed for current and aspiring ICISF Approved Instructors and will help trainers of all levels to improve their skills by earning positive evaluations and feedback. Participants will be encouraged to share their best teaching practices.
