Post-workshop surveys indicated a 75% increase in trainer confidence levels.
100% of trainers adopted a consistent and inclusive methodology, leading to a more uniform training experience across the enterprise.
Participants reported a 50% increase in learner engagement during training sessions.
Over 90% of workshop participants rated the experience as “Excellent” or “Very Good,” appreciating the practical tips, inclusive practices, and interactive nature of the sessions.
Conclusion
This case study demonstrates my ability to design and deliver impactful training programs that enhance the skills and effectiveness of internal trainers. By focusing on practical techniques and interactive learning, and inclusive practices, I can help organizations like Cadreon achieve their training and development goals, leading to sustainable change and improved performance.
