Organisations interested in accessing

frequently asked questions.
- Typical questions about the Independent Travel Training Programme (the programme organisations use to train end users to travel independently)
- Typical questions about the Training for Trainers Programme (the programme delivered by New Horizons to train your staff in how to deliver the ITT programme/become travel trainers at their organisations)
The Training for Trainers programme teaches candidates how to use training
materials (including workbooks, assessment sheets and multimedia animations)
to plan and deliver a training programme at your organisations. Essentially,
it focuses on how to extract and use information from an IT resource (multimedia
CD-Rom resource) in order to apply it in the classroom.
Please note that the specialised skills that one needs to develop in order
to become a trainer or to teach a learning disabled client are beyond the
remit of this programme and are not the focus of this course. These skills
are a suggested prerequisite to training (as listed in the FAQ).
