Helping your trainees
If possible try to
treat the course delegates as if they are off-site.
They will learn better if they are free from
interruptions and the pressures of their normal job
roles.
Hours and refreshment
breaks
If you have preferred
times for the course to run and times for
refreshments then please let us know prior to the
course or let the tutor know at the beginning of the
week. It is helpful if you can arrange refreshments
and lunch, whether this is at your canteen or
delivered by caterers, as this can help the smooth
flow of the course.
Suggestions for the
training room (Practical courses)
Where possible, our
preferences for the training room you provide are:
-
A room size of
15ft x 20ft (5x7m) or more set up in
standard boardroom style layout
to seat the delegates + tutor comfortably with a
couple of additional large tables or workbenches
to the side for equipment. However a boardroom
table which can seat more people is fine if no
side tables are available. Not too smart for
practical courses.
-
Power and good
lighting
-
Reasonable
access for bringing in equipment from the
van/vehicle

General Training
Equipment
The tutor will bring
everything he requires to run the course (e.g. data
projector and PC, screen, flip chart) although if
any of these items are resident/available in the
room being used then that can be helpful.
Technical Equipment
The tutor will bring
all the fibre optics/copper equipment he requires to
run the course (unless otherwise arranged with you).
However, if you have your own equipment (e.g. OTDR,
fusion splicer) which you can make available for the
course then this is useful as it means that the
training can be carried out on the equipment which
the delegates will be using later. If you will be
doing this could you please let us know in advance
and give us details of what makes/models will be
provided – thank you.
Security arrangements
Please advise us if
there are any special security arrangements, a need
for identification, safety procedures etc. or you
require specific information prior to the date of
the course.
Start-time - setting
up the course
Unless otherwise
arranged with you, your tutor will arrive at about
8.30am in order to prepare for a 9.30am
start. Please advise us of any difficulties we may
have in/arrangements to be made for parking close to
your premises in order to unload/load the van.
Local Contact
We request that you
appoint someone as the contact for the trainer and
provide us with a name and contact phone number for
them. This person would be the trainers first point
of contact for any issues arising, including
parking, unloading, unusual manual handling issues
(e.g. large cabinets for specific practical courses)
and any health and safety issues.
If you have any
queries then do call us on 01756 797155 to discuss them.
