I’ve been leading training for over 25 years, and in that time, I’ve seen all sorts of methods and techniques come and go. Some of them have been useful, but many of them are just fancy bells and whistles that add nothing to the learner experience. As an industry, we’ve been cluttering our sessions with all the wrong stuff—and some of that stuff should have stayed in the 90s!
If you want to increase learner engagement and stand out in a sea of trainers who are all competing for the same work, it’s time to re-imagine what your training could look like. And I’m not talking about a few tweaks to make your training just a little bit better. I’m talking about how you can deliver training in a whole new way.
Ignite the Room is a special one-day masterclass which gives you a chance to re-think how you design and deliver training. This kind of training gets you more engagement, better outcomes and more work. Because when you bring something different to the room, people talk.
In this one day masterclass, you will:
✅ Discover why it’s time to ditch the slides and what you can do in their place.
✅ Explore the myth of learning styles and why it’s still useful, even though it’s wrong.
✅ Learn principles for designing training that’s transformational, not just informational, and
✅ Get real-life strategies for levelling-up your current training, so that people keep coming back for more.
Throughout the day you’ll gather dozens of tools and techniques that will change the way you run your sessions. Plus, you’ll leave with practical activities you can instantly use to ignite the room and transform your training.
This masterclass is for:
✅ Independent trainers and facilitators who want to level-up their delivery and become known as stand-out trainers in their field.
✅ In-house trainers who want to shake-up the way training is delivered in their organisation, so that learning becomes more inviting and effective.
✅ Learning Designers who want to experience a different way to learn, so they can incorporate new ideas and principles into their sessions.
I am so confident that you will leave this workshop buzzing with new ideas and fresh perspectives, that if you come along and are disappointed—I’ll give you your money back.
Check out what others have to say:
“If facilitation were a superpower, Kerri would be flying around in a cape (probably with a flip chart in hand), saving us all from awkward silences and unclear conversations. I’ve been lucky enough to experience The Facilitator’s Toolkit, leadership training, and a bunch of other sessions with Kerri at the helm, and let me tell you… She’s a powerhouse. Think TED Talk meets team therapy meets stand-up comedy (the good kind).
You’ll leave her sessions with a full brain, a full heart, and maybe a few existential breakthroughs. 10/10 would recommend working with Kerri. She’s the kind of facilitator who changes the way you show up in a room, in your work, and for yourself.”
Tan Phuangdokmai, Strategic Advisor, Tauranga City Council
“Kerri is the fairy godmother of facilitation. A more generous and kindest person you will not come across. And don’t get me started on the pure electric and joyous energy she radiates.
Whether she is facilitating a workshop, or her famous facilitation festival, you will feel seen and heard. I have had the pleasure of experiencing both and have come away with new skills and the belief that I can do it. Kerri is the ultimate pro that makes facilitation look easy, but with so much fun.”
Tracey Olivier, Leadership and Team Development Facilitator
This one-time one-day masterclass is happening in Sydney on Friday 14th November and space is limited to just 25 participants.
