The overall aim of the programme is to enable participants develop the necessary knowledge, skills and competencies to undertake training activities in organisations. The programme encompasses the development of competencies that will enable learners identify and assess training needs, to develop, plan, organise, deliver and evaluate relevant training activities for individuals and groups. The course consists of two modules and is delivered with an emphasis on practical application and relevance of training and development to the workplace:
Module 1: Training Needs, Identification and Design (6S3325)
Module 2: Training Delivery and Evaluation (6S3326)
A range of learning methods and approaches will be used to promote the practical application of the theoretical concepts covered. Run over a three months period, this part-time programme leads to a QQI Level 6 Training and Development Special Purpose Award – 6S3372.
Achievement of this award will enable learners progress to other appropriate programmes leading to awards at the next or higher levels of the National Framework of Qualifications.
Options available:
Both modules must be completed successfully to achieve the full level 6 award/training qualification.
However, modules may be taken individually and/or separately on a stand-alone basis as a minor award.
