Trainers’ Training (Methodology) / Training Materials Development Course
The CESTRAR/DTDA Trainers’ Training (Methodology) / Training Materials Development Course takes point of departure from the understanding that training is a strategic tool for change. Trainers are an important resource base for trade unions in relation to educate trade unionists and members, while at the same time inform local union leaders on the day-to-day issues affecting its membership.
The modular-based CESTRAR/DTDA Trainers’ Training (Methodology) / Training Materials Development Course provides trade union trainers and educators with core competencies that leads trainers through each stage of the two modular-based processes on how to develop and support the adult pedagogical skills of potential trainers as well as progressive trade union leaders.
