Document Summary
Training delivery activities: develop a lesson plan, choose a trainer, decide on the trainees who should attend a training program, determine the training materials and equipment required, prepare the training site, schedule the training program, administer the training. Lesson plan: the blueprint that outlines the training program in terms of the sequence of activities that will take place. Lesson: a cohesive unit of instruction with a specific learning objective. A lesson plan should reflect the interaction of content, sequence, trainer, trainee, and the norms of the organization. The cover of the lesson plan should include: the training objectives, the trainees, the trainer, time allocation, location, classroom requirements and seating, training materials and equipment, and supplies and handouts. Some general approaches to sequencing are: general to specific, easy to difficult, concrete to abstract, old to new, simple to complex, familiar to unknown, practical to theoretical, and present to future.
