Mumbai, February 25, 2014: Lavasa
Corporation Limited has entered into a partnership with School of
Social Work, a part of Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey to
offer ‘Certificate in Training Skills’ program at Lavasa.
Nathan
Andrews, President, Lavasa Corporation Limited, commenting on the tie
up with Rutgers to launch the training skills program said, “Rutgers is
New Jersey’s flagship state university and one of the top research
institutions in USA. The School of Social Work conducts exceptional
training programs to enhance professional growth and strengthen
organizations and the communities served by the participants. The
partnership with Rutgers is part of the endeavour to build Lavasa as a
centre of excellence for education.”
The
4 day intensive program scheduled to be held at Lavasa from April 24 to
April 27, 2014. The program is designed to provide comprehensive
training and professional development to people interested in becoming
trainers, or who want to upgrade their presentation and group leadership
skills; and to supervisors who train their own workers to make
presentations. It is
based on the premise that the best training goes far beyond simply
presenting material. The program utilizes methods that engage the
learner in every facet of the training experience. When learners are
connected to the material - they retain it.
Participants
will learn how to design, and deliver memorable and effective
trainings. Based on how adults learn, the skills covered in the program
help increase knowledge retention and satisfaction from participants.
Regardless of what the topic is, the skills acquired through the program
help make presentations more effective.
People
with some work or volunteer experience as a trainer, teacher, or
supervisor, and fluency in English can participate in the 4 day
intensive program.
Speaking
about the tie up with Lavasa and the training program, Andy Germak,
executive director from the School of Social Work at Rutgers University,
said, “We are extremely pleased to partner with Lavasa Corporation
Limited on delivery of this training program in Lavasa.” He added,
“Rutgers University is a preeminent institution of higher learning with a
strong reputation in the U.S. and overseas; graduates of this
certificate program will join a global community of successful
professionals trained by Rutgers programs.”
The course will include the following workshops:
1. Developing Objectives and Planning the Workshop
2. Creating Effective Training Presentations
3. Working with Case Studies and Role Plays
4. Experiential and Interactive Training Methods
5. Group Skills For Trainers
6. Training Needs Assessment and Evaluation
7. Designing Experiential Training
8. Keeping your participants involved all day long
9. Using Activities (Fun & Games) to promote Training Retention.
Certificates
of completion will be offered after each workshop and a final Training
Skills Certificate will be awarded if all workshops in the certificate
are attended. Participants will also receive continuing education units
from Rutgers University – 22 units for participating in the full 4 day
program. Single workshop registrations are accepted.
