TRAINING METHODS & STYLE

Spearhead Training work with delegates in their respective field. Our aim is to:

"Help delegates do better that which they already do well”

Our courses are both challenging and supportive, and provide a high performance, high learning environment.

CREATING A HIGH PERFORMANCE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT

We believe that the job of our trainers is to help delegates discover the key training points by using a blend of the following methods:

• - Participative tutor led discussion.
  - Individual and syndicate exercises with review and tutor feedback.
  - Case studies to allow delegates to review different scenarios and identify how they would deal with them.
• - Self and team assessment questionnaires.
  
• - Learning games.
  
• - Questionnaires (sometimes in the form of a multiple-choice quiz).
  
• - Role-plays and simulations.
  - Guidance and tutor coaching.

Part of the Spearhead philosophy is that it is also our tutor’s job to ensure that the training points can be directly related to the delegate's work. Our tutor team view themselves as consultants, not lecturers, working with delegates to enhance performance and achieve common objectives.

SPEARHEAD'S BLENDED LEARNING APPROACH
Turning new knowledge and intent into actions that improve personal and business performance

Post-course support that encourages on-going learning has always been central to Spearhead’s approach to effective training. It is just one of the ways that we ensure that any training provided by us improves business performance and achieves a real return on your investment.

We were one of the first training companies to provide post-course support for open course delegates in the form of our delegate help-line. And unlike other companies we do not limit this support to the use of an impersonal e-helpdesk - although you can also contact us this way if you prefer. We provide you with actual post-course telephone contact with your tutor.

We also pioneered the use of regular post-course communication with all open course delegates - which we call e-train. This specially designed learning support programme was developed by Spearhead and is delivered in a controlled manner to your personal inbox. E-train supports you as you transfer your knowledge into actions that will improve personal and business performance by reminding you of key points from your course, providing you with additional tips and motivating you to keep applying your learning.

For our in-company clients, many other blended options are also available, including:

• - Tailored pre-course support
• - Tailored post-course communications
• - Face-to-Face coaching
• - Telephone coaching

No other training company gives you so much support.
