As part of the review at the start of day-2 of a two day coaching programme, one group of managers composed a fantastic poem whilst another group reviewed day-1 by creating a great poster.The outputs are below and both illustrate how wonderfully creative we can be when given the opportunity.One "Coaching is..." poster made a connection between a suspension bridge and coaching:both are flexible,

Review is a vital part of learning. It reinforces, personalises, integates and consolidates. Making it fun helps too :-)Here is one learning review by a group of trainers who were about to complete a 5-day preparation for a new 3-wk induction course they would be delivering. They chose to review the week in song.For more information about trainer development, go to our website.

Induction training is vital in preparing new starters for their role in the business - not only in terms of product & sytems expertise but also in creating the right attitudes and behaviours. Sadly, inductions are often uninspiring, heavy on passive receipt of ‘knowledge’ and light on involvement and fun.This short video has two trainers talk about the transformation their inductions underwent.

After developing a brand new induction programme and taking valuable lessons from the pilot, it was time to support the Induction Trainers from England, Scotland and Wales.After the final 5-day workshop, each group was asked to recap and summarise their "Dress Rehersal" week in a creative way suitable for broadcasting in a podcast !!Here are the results:SSE TV:500 miles - trainer recap as a
