It's a nice resource to give structure for those who have limited training skills and do t have $1000 in their budget to send staff to learn about it.

I'm...hesitant.
I skimmed through this book looking for a few features it promised to have. The first page I looked at had 6 noticeable typos/grammatical errors. I'm now very much regretting this purchase. I'm allowing 2 stars because there are certainly aspects of great trainings that are featured in this book and some people don't even have that solid foundation prior to leading formalized training. (Trust me, I've sat through them...yikes.) But, my high hopes for this book are already dashed. Disappointing.

Great book for trainers
I was introduced to the Skills Converged website through a colleague who was aware of my interest in becoming a trainer. There is a large variety of articles and exercises on the website for trainers which I found very useful. I came across this book on their website and it was really what I was looking for all along. The book is written in a clear and precise manner, covering different aspects of training and delivery. There is a huge emphasis on planning and organisation and there is a clear logic on why certain methods are effective. The instructions are easy to follow and implement. The book contains a lot of very specific tips in each area of training that are often very helpful. I also enjoyed answering the exercises. It has already made me think differently and I agree with many of the discussions on how some training methods don’t work and what should be done to fix them. So I am excited to implement the tips and see the results. Overall this is a very useful book, well written and easy to follow. I would recommend it to all who are interested in either becoming a trainer or are hoping to improve their training skills.

good content
I agree with the remarks from other readers about the grammar and the look and feel. But there is a lot of good content. Some of the online ressources are also good.

Very useful - well written and informative. Great for trainers.
An extremely useful book if you are giving training and want some advice and tips about how to get the most out of the training you are giving. The author/s clearly have a lot of experience and I found the information certainly relevant to the training I give. Quite cheap as well cost wise so you really cannot go far wrong with this book.
