What do members of the network gain from being part of it?

  • Continuing professional development without a sales agenda
  • An informative, participative and supportive social atmosphere
  • Best practice shared between highly experienced professionals
  • Four meetings per year which are long enough to allow topics to be tackled in proper depth
  • High quality debate involving the many different perspectives which our members bring

Our members work across a wide range of sectors and types of training and development – including management development and e-learning. Most members are based in London or the South East.

The Trainers & Developers Network has been meeting since 1992.

 

Our next event

Meta learning with Ned Seabrook
Fri
4th Dec @ Interhealth (Waterloo) Map
Starts: 10:30 coffee for 11:00am promptly

In a changing environment, trainers & developers are expected to apply their expertise to make the learning process effective. This session aims will help to develop our expertise. We may all be familiar with Kolb's cycle and the Honey & Mumford model but if you would like to move on from these, this is the meeting for you!

This ‘Meta Learning’ session will explore with you what the 52 theories, 18 concepts and multiple domains have to say about Learning Styles, Strategies and Skills – well, as much as we can in a single day. The aim is to find some course through the vast and conflicting body of knowledge that defines ‘Learning’ and how people go about it.

Ned Seabrook, MD of
 Insight Consulting & Development Ltd, will be helping us grapple with the essential issue adult learning and the latest thinking behind this. Ned leads a small network of professional coaches, learning facilitators and HR specialists. He will explore with us what the 52 theories, 18 concepts and multiple domains have to say about Learning Styles, Strategies and Skills – well, as much as we can in a single day!

The aim is to find some navigable course through the vast and conflicting body of knowledge that defines ‘Learning’ and how people go about it.

As this is the last meeting of the year, please stay with us to chat and eat at a local venue after the meeting.  Please let Debbie know (debra@stanfieldd.freeserve.co.uk) so that we can book you in.
