ECONOMICAL SELF-RUN WORKSHOPS
Sometimes organizations need more than short training sessions. Sometimes they need workshops, but many small businesses think they can't afford or don't have the experience to run their own workshops. We have the solution. Here we have a collection of high-quality workshops designed around the Australian Think Tank and Training Seminar Symposium that are effective and economical. Each workshop, produced in Australia (in easily understood world-wide English) comes on one CD-ROM, which includes reproducible facilitator's guide, handouts, and video. Companies can print their own guides and handouts, so there is no added expense. AND they can be used over and over again. These workshops can be used for any size group or they can even be used by individuals. Each seminar/workshop is designed to expand or contract with your time and training needs. Since our experts have been video taped, organizations do not have to go to the added expense of bringing in outside trainers.
Economical workshops ANYONE can run!
Workshop CD Content:
Video Presentation of Training Sessions
These full color seminars, featuring experts in the field, show an actual session. The video may be paused for discussion or additional input from the facilitator. You also receive the same video on DVD.
Facilitator/Trainer Manual
This is a printable file from the CD, and contains specific instructions and hints to presenters on running the course. It is designed to enable presenters to use the video as part of the course, as well as other materials described below. It enables a group to engage in the topic in a full participatory mode. In this way companies can flexibly adjust the materials to their organizations and the individuals taking part.

They are meant to involve participants in personal reflection and response, discussions, recording and creative thinking. The video may be paused at key times while these interactions take place.
