Troubleshooting Live Training Events

Third Wednesday of the Month *Presented Virtually*

Wednesday, September 15, 2021

Open to Members and Non-Members

9:30 - 11:00 a.m.

Delivering Live training - whether virtually or face-to-face - can be a nerve-wracking or challenging endeavor. There are more "make or break" moments in facilitation than there are in other aspects of a learning professional's position - from technology that doesn't work, to participants who are unresponsive or are multi-tasking, to time management. This interactive session will offer strategies for some of the most common challenges facilitators of live training events face from Sophie Oberstein, author of Troubleshooting for Trainers.

You'll walk away from this 1.5-hour session with:

• 30+ tips applicable to common challenges in live training situations
• Understanding that you aren't alone in facing some of these challenges
• Enhanced trust in your intuitive solutions
