It combines theoretical knowledge with practical, hands-on training to ensure participants can apply what they learn in real-world situations. Additionally, the inclusion of simulation and scenario training on the final day provides a realistic and controlled environment for participants to test their newly acquired skills
Training Methodology
This practical and results-oriented training course is based on adult learning concept. It will be presented using a combination of interactive presentations, case studies, participant activities and exercises to maximize the impact of the learning experience. Delegates will have ample time to consider the ideas and apply the skills discussed.
Pre & Post course assessments will be used to measure the effectiveness of this training and measure the skill and ability of participants. Training manuals and additional reference materials are provided to the participants , who will also be awarded a certificate of participation from Skyrokers Training & Consultancy Institute at the end of the course.
