 Training Methodology

The First Step Identifying Precisely The Training Needs Depending On:

1. The general objective of the training in accordance with the organization vision and values.
2. Checks and questionnaires before carrying out.

The Second step Getting Ready To Implement The Program Through:

1. Harmonizing the training content of the program with specified needs.

2. Assign 70% of the implementation time to the practical part and 30% to theoretical side.
3. Planning the use of modern training techniques according to the training requirements.
4. Determine the time frame of the training program.
5. Identify the training program by sending a clear brief article that sheds the light on the training
program.
6. Review the expectations of the program before the beginning of the program by the coach.

The Third step

The Implementation Of The Training Program:

1. Following up step by step the implementation stages.

2. Making sure that the implementation process is done properly with the use of the appropriate
training methods for the participants.

tests.

The Fourth Step

Evaluating The Impact Of The Training:

1. Delivering an interactive exercise to the participants to help applying the practical parts.
2. Arranging online meetings through the electronic Ivory hall for two hours to review the
applications directly by the participants and to exchange experiences and recommendations by the
coach.
3. Exercising a practical case study that is similar to the program content.
4. Arranging online meetings through the electronic Ivory hall for two hours to review the situation
and solutions that have been taken by the participants and to exchange experiences and
recommendations by the coach.
5. Provide the participants with a list of the dedicated information references and videos in the same
field of the program.
6. Dedicating a special forum to exchange experiences, knowledge, opinions, advice and inquiries
during the program period as well as after the end of the training program to make sure that
changes in the skills of the trainees happen.
