Description-General Information

In ICT it is possible to find professionals with a high technical level whose communication and knowledge transmission skills are not the most appropriate to generate learning. Due to this problem that Nanfor has had since 1988, it has developed training courses for trainers applied to ICT, since traditional training courses for trainers suffer from the ICT component, not only because of the contents to be shown but also because of the type of person who you will receive the course, your concerns, psychology and final objectives of the training. There are many training courses for trainers on the market that are not carried out by experts in the transmission of ICT knowledge; aspects of how to interact with simulations and practices with advanced laboratories must be explained by technicians and not only by psychologists or pedagogues. Our program integrates the experiences and knowledge of professional pedagogues with ICT trainers of a high technical level who obtain daily evaluations of their higher courses of 4.5 out of 5. “ Teaching discimus-Teaching we learn ” Seneca.

The course is oriented to the needs of the student, verifying according to our methodology that the teacher in the development of the course generates a direct impact on the student's role.

Public Profile

This course is aimed at any professional who wishes to teach ICT courses to professionals in the sector and to people who want to join the ICT sector.
