Lavasa Corporation ties up with School of Social Work, Rutgers University to deliver Certificate Program in Training Skills

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.
