In this episode of ComplyPlus™ Presents, Dr Richard Dune and Lewis Normoyle revisit their recent Train the Trainer webinar and explore a question many health and social care providers are now facing:

“How do we know our internal trainers are actually safe to train others?”

They unpack why subject knowledge alone is not enough, why Train the Trainer should never be treated as a tick-box exercise, and why organisations need a proper trainer competency system, not just a list of experienced staff who have been asked to deliver training.

Together, they discuss the journey from subject matter expert to safe trainer, including trainer registers, training needs analysis, micro-teach assessments, trainer drift, refresher training, quality assurance, and the importance of authorising trainers properly.

Listeners will learn:

• Why confidence and competence are not the same thing
• How to decide who should and should not train internally
• Why micro-teach is a key part of trainer authorisation
• How to avoid trainer drift and outdated delivery
• Why quality assurance should be built into the system, not added at the end
• What registered managers can do first to improve their Train the Trainer approach

Whether you are a registered manager, quality lead, training manager, or provider director, this episode will help you move beyond informal internal training and build a safer, more structured Train the Trainer system that stands up to scrutiny.
