Technical Training Facilitator
IT
East Leake, Loughborough LE12, UK
As a Technical Training Facilitator, you will lead live, virtual-first training across three core software products, spending roughly 85% of your time delivering interactive workshops to client schools.
Rather than walking through generic feature demonstrations, you will run true hands-on workshops using an "I do, we do, you do" approach so participants leave feeling confident and capable. You will read the room in real-time to adjust pacing and content dynamically, providing targeted follow-up to ensure every session serves as an exceptional first impression that drives long-term engagement. Additionally, you will help develop self-serve asynchronous training courses based on insights gathered from live sessions.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
- Live Facilitation: Spend the majority of your time (approx. 85%) delivering engaging, virtual-first technical training sessions and workshops across three assigned products.
- Interactive Workshops: Conduct true hands-on workshops using an "I do, we do, you do" framework rather than standard product walkthroughs.
- Real-Time Adaptation: Read virtual room dynamics, including chat, energy, and questions, to dynamically adjust session pacing and delivery on the fly.
- Tailored Engagement: Adapt core training materials into customized learning experiences that fit the specific audience without losing essential structure.
- Actionable Follow-Up: Provide targeted post-session follow-ups, resources, and next steps based on specific attendee questions and identified learning gaps.
- Opportunity Identification: Flag organic opportunities for client schools to benefit from additional products, services, or professional learning as part of session follow-up.
- Asynchronous Content Creation: Contribute to self-serve course platforms by transforming live session insights into self-paced online courses.
- Cross-Functional Alignment: Partner with regional peers and the broader Educational Services team to ensure training connects seamlessly with overall client learning journeys.
What Success Looks Like
- Active Learning: Participants gain hands-on proficiency during sessions rather than passively watching demonstrations.
- High Workshop Ratings: Client feedback consistently highlights interactive, well-paced, and highly relevant session delivery.
- Measurable Follow-Through: Specific post-session guidance leads to continued client engagement and additional learning bookings.
- Sustained Engagement: Schools completing technical training actively progress to deeper platform adoption and professional learning offerings.
- Effective Asynchronous Learning: Contributions to self-serve courses successfully guide clients through independent, self-paced learning.
