Karishma chhabria,

I really don't like the way you are spamming these forums. If this is how you are, what are you going to train, I wonder.

Indeed as many have suggested in this thread, it all goes back to passion and how much you like training others.

Training however is just a skills. There are some who thing a good trainer is just born that way. Of course as we know well with human capabilities, if there is a skill and someone can do it, so can you. You just have to learn it.

It is not critical to get NLP, MBTI, and the rest but I absolutely recommend a train-the-trainer program that get you to practice the skills itself. They usually get you to do it your own way and then explain what it is wrong. Then teach you how should it be done and you can then go from there and learn it the right way. In the UK, I recommend TAP program and I beleive they are expanding to India as well. Of course, there might be others locally which you need to check out.

The other thing you need have if you want to become a freelance trainer is to have Training Materials and Training Exercises. This is indeed our passion and we work hard to produce high quality content that will save a tremendous amount of time for other trainers.

I wish you sucess in your training adventure.
Chelsea.

1) Virtue of Interest and passion for teaching
2) Knowledge on varied subject
3) Open to share the topics with everyone
4) Love to mentor people

You can still do a lot of course as they were not so widely spoken in the market when I started. You can introspect your strength and see where your road lies ahead for you, is it in Soft skill field or behavioural skill or Management skill etc.

You can choose to do TTT (trainer the trainer) program to understand the nuances of training like, preparation of content, presentation, body language, handouts etc to start with and after a year of experience you'll have wonderful idea about what you really want to do.

1) As I said passion and interest are must for being a trainer. Although teaching and training is different, still I feel more than being a trainer, the self-thought of being a mentor will add more value and upkeep your passion for long time.

2) You need to updated yourself with lot of topics from past, present, riddles, comics, incidents and at times you need to know to mix up virtual with real incidents.

3) Training require some of the very important skill which will be taught in TTT program, still you can do lot of practice back at home.

A)You need to know how to prepare a ppt, trainer's manual, worksheets, participant manual, activites and games.

B)You should work on your tone, expression, modulation, speech volume, pitch and pronunciation.

c)You should be vary of your body language, movement on the floor, connect of your eyes with the participants.

D)You need to start in a nice note and end the training in a high spirited note and thus thrusting the confidence level in participant.

E)Very important, you need to know how to answer the questions asked to you and how to say no for something which you really don't know. YOu need to be honest and accept things diplomatically.

I would suggest you to join as Executive-Trainer and learn the nitty gritty of training while doing TTT.

Best of luck.

Hi Fellow trainers and aspiring trainers,

I am Gourav Mahajan, a soft skills trainer working in HCL Infosystems, I have also worked in New Horizons. I have around 4 years of experience in training. I started my career as a technical trainer, but after giving a small session on soft skills, I developed great interest in soft skills and since then I am enjoying my work as a soft skills trainer.

My experience in comparisons to many great experienced trainers is very less, and I strengthen the fact that I am always in a learning mode being a curious human and a trainer. I would also like to mention in here that I don't carry any certification in my kitty, and my experience is the only thing which is taking me places.

I have trained students, professionals from IT and retail sector all over India, and I hope I have done fairly well and planning to improve my performance by learning more in this field.

I would like to thank Mr. Jayaraman and Vidyut to strengthen my belief, that it's all about passion and our urge to learn new concepts to become a successful and most important a satisfied trainer.

I would like to ask few questions being a relatively new trainer in this field, that as I don't have any certification, is it anyhow hindering my professional growth in this field?

And if YES, then could you please suggest me some certification program, which I can go for without taking much time from my work.

Apart from all this, I would like to add that I have heard a lot about CPBA program and I am keen to know more about it. Is there any institute in India, which gives this certification?

I am sorry for this long post, but i just wanted to clear all my doubts in one post, as i hardly get time to sit on internet...
