We will be offering Train the Trainer workshops in 2024!

Lou Walsh delivered these workshops during 2022/3 and they were a huge success. Unfortunately Lou passed away in late 2023, though her passion for the industry and the trainer course will always remain a huge part of Go Green! The Train the Trainer workshops will continue through our Go Green trainers – Blaine, Laura and Deucalion, with our wealth of experience and expert knowledge.

The Train the Trainer workshop is designed for:
– Anyone who is considering supporting or training PDIs but isn’t quite sure where to start
– Anyone who is new to supporting or training PDIs, but would like more guidance, further knowledge and training, and structure
– Anyone who has been training PDIs for a while and would like to refresh their skills and ensure they are training to the most current and up to date guidance
And for anyone inbetween!

This workshop will help you understand how to be an effective and modern trainer, know what skills to be training PDIs in to help them meet the required standards and become great instructors, and how to think like a trainer and to gain new tools and techniques to make the most of the training and support you offer to PDIs.

We will cover everything from supporting PDIs in their part 1, 2 and 3 tests, how to provide effective in car training, how to provide structure to ensure smooth efficient training so that everything is covered and nothing is missed, how to manage lesson observations, how to adapt training and manage safety critical incidents, how to ask the right questions and provide constructive feedback, to understand the traps PDIs fall into, what your role as a trainer really means, understanding the pink trainee licence and the rules and requirements, as well as the business element of training such as deciding whether to offer a franchise, how to run a driving school and what to offer, sourcing PDIs, and we’ll also talk about ORDIT.

Our Go Green trainers have first hand experience, expert knowledge, and valuable insight. We will develop your skills, get you thinking in different ways, build your confidence in training, and engage in interactive discussions throughout the workshop. Most importantly, we will have fun!

Our Train the Trainer workshops are smaller and more personal than our part 3/standards check workshops. We understand that the nature of training is incredible and can be overwhelming, so we keep our Train the Trainer workshops smaller, giving you the time and space to ask more questions and we can devote the time to structuring the workshops around your needs.

We will also be offering Train the Trainer Zoom sessions, designed to give you a space to talk about your training, your PDIs, and to ask any questions that you have.

For those who attend our Train the Trainer workshop, you will be invited to our secret, exclusive Facebook support group – just for those who have attended. This is a safe place where you can ask questions and share your experiences with like minded trainers, and continue to receive support from Go Green trainers.

We will announce workshop dates shortly.
