OR

Notes:

1- The Nominated Trainer must pass an online, self-pace Training induction course containing the ‘’Course Material – Asynchronous’’ through our Learning Management System (LMS).

2- The Nominated Trainer must then pass the Face-to-Face Training induction course which includes partial delivery of the subject matter for 5 days.

Delivery may involve:

– Power point preparation and explanation and/or use of other Visual aids (videos/charts/pictures…).

– Interactive lecturing (questions to audience/brainstorming/giving examples).

– Interactive/guided discussions.

– Practical and group exercises.

– Case studies.

– Any other method of delivery that is fitting depending on the nature of the session.

3- If the participant manages to pass the Trainer Induction Course (online + Face to Face), he will be partially authorized and will have to deliver two consecutive courses which will be monitored by MCP Med TI, then he will become a fully authorized trainer for two years.

4- When assessing the eligibility of potential instructors, the Training Institute will consider:

• Training Portfolio including the number of participants trained, and course contents.

• CPD hours.

5- The Training Institute reserves the right to assess the operational experience of potential instructors.
