Training methodology:

The methodology is based on interactive learning, i.e. learners will learn by doing. Furthermore learners will use examples from their own organisations, thus ensuring that the learning is anchored at their workplace. Theory will be firmly based on the practical application of concepts in reality.

Role-plays and case studies will help learners to practice skills related to the unit standard. Practical implementation of skills will be a focus point. Assessment will also be done related to his or her own work environment to ensure transfer of learning.

As with all DCT training programmes, we strive to effect actual change back at the workplace through effective and practical outcomes based training.
