Training Program Methodology
 

At "Boost," we believe in the importance of trainee participation in the training process. Therefore, we follow the "30% - 70%" methodology in this training program. This approach allocates 30% of the program time to a direct explanation of training material, while the remaining 70% is dedicated to a variety of practical activities aimed at achieving comprehensive competence in acquiring knowledge, skills, and required experience.

In this training program, we focus on designing a variety of activities, providing advice, and sharing diverse experiences. This transforms the trainee to an active participant in the training process. This positively impacts their ability to achieve the program's objectives quickly and within the specified timeframe.
 

Delivery Methods and Techniques
 

• Facilitated Discussions: The facilitator leads discussions and encourages participant input, ensuring that participants are actively engaged in connecting theory with practice.
• Role-Playing and Simulation: Hands-on activities designed to reinforce training concepts in real-time scenarios.
• Storytelling: The use of impactful stories to illustrate training concepts in real-world contexts.
• Group Exercises and Problem Solving: Activities that foster teamwork and encourage problem-solving.
• Peer Feedback: Participants provide and receive feedback throughout the program.

 

Outcomes and Evaluation
 

• Evaluation: Participants will complete pre- and post-assessments to gauge improvements in their skills.
• A detailed report is submitted to each participant and the training department in your organization on the results of the participant's performance and the return on training.
