Description

Over the last two years, organizations have been using virtual training platforms more and more. But what they've found is that virtual training is different from in-person training. In today's episode, we will learn three important things you must have in any virtual training. Tune in to Learning For Good — Three Must-Haves in Any Virtual Training. What You Will Discover:  #1 - Be intentional. Have a purpose with what you create and how you create it to keep the training relevant and meaningful to your staff. Consider: The organization’s needs - What do you want to accomplish through the virtual training? How does that support your organization?  The audience’s needs - What do they already know how to do? What skills might be lacking? What motivates them to do these things?  Imagine how you can use the virtual classroom to help them practice the skills they need. #2 - Build trust. Your staff will be more engaged in your virtual training if they believe you want the best for them. How? Set expectations. Explain the benefits of the training on their career or position. Facilitate relationship-building among participants. Listen to your staff.  #3 - Do the unexpected. Don’t just be a talking head presenting information on a screen. People remember what is unique, uncommon, and outside the norm. To make your virtual training more interesting: Use an improv activity.  Try out a Kahoot! game.  Turn videos off for a change.  Watch: How to Build Trust Among Your NonProfit’s Hybrid Workforce Subscribe to the channel: Skill Masters Market Download my free Virtual Facilitation Formula: https://mailchi.mp/skillmastersmarket/three-tips-for-virtual-facilitation Visit my website to see how we can work together. https://www.skillmastersmarket.com/consulting-home

As nonprofit learning and development leaders, we want a seat at the table. We want to be viewed as true business partners who can help solve problems. We want to create meaningful learning solutions that fit in the flow of work and yield real results for the organization. That's why in this podcast, we will not only explore instructional design and leadership development best practices, but we will also explore change management, belonging, and influence - helping you build the case for the solutions your organization needs so you can show up confidently in conversations with other senior leaders, subject matter experts, and partners. If we haven't met yet, I'm Heather, and I’ve been in your shoes. I'm a learning and development consultant and the founder and principal consultant at Skill Masters Market. Before starting Skill Masters Market, I worked for a large national nonprofit where I led learning and leadership development initiatives. I know what it’s like to need to develop your staff quickly and effectively and to build the relationships and cut through the organizational layers to be successful. With an eye for both the larger strategy and the creative design process, I've created hundreds of learning experiences - in-person, self-paced, and virtual classroom - and have worked with dozens of leaders to help them achieve their organization’s professional development goals. So if you're ready to bust through the barriers and start creating behavior change in your nonprofit, this podcast is for you. Let's dive in. It's Learning for Good.
