TRAIN-THE-TRAINER TRAINING PROGRAMME
TO UNDERTAKE
THE GENERAL ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS
REQUISITES COURSE
COURSE NAME:
GEARS
The objective of this TRAINING PROGRAMME is to train the trainer, with
specific reference to environmental awareness, to enable the trainer to
undertake the General Environmental Awareness Requisites “GEARS” course. No assumption
has been made or inferred, that the participants of this training programme
have an in-depth knowledge of environmental protection or pollution control. On
completion, the trained participants will be able to deliver EMS awareness
training independently.
The three-day training programme has been devised specifically to allow
the participants the maximum interaction with the trainer and participate
jointly in discussion and understanding of the topics that will be covered.
The training programme opens and develops in such a way to bring the
participants together and put them at ease with the trainer and, of course, the
other way round to form a relaxed and informal climate.
Time scales
are flexible, dependent on the number of participants per training programme.

of the content, for Day 2 and Day 3 of the programme.
Days Two and Three will bring together the participants and capitalise on
their real understanding in the context of GEARS and their company’s EMS. From
their own evaluation and assessment of what is required by GEARS, participants
will be directed in the techniques of training, in order to develop and adapt
their own style of training to deliver this course. All course participants
will give an evaluation on each other’s styles of presentation, allowing for
the encouragement and development of their own particular style.
DAY TWO
Duration Content and Description
2H00 OVERVIEW
OF PREVIOUS DAY AND RECAP OF GEARS
Participants prepare and present their
own ideas of environmental awareness based on:
1.
Are the
participants aware of the environment themselves?
2.
Can they identify where
problems may be found in their own working environment?
3.
Do they believe
that they can make others aware of the environment around them?
3H30 Participants present their
own introductions for a gears course, AS WELL AS a BALANCED understanding of
their country’s environmental legislation.
1h00 discussion and pointers on the day’s
events
Participants will be asked
to return in the morning, with examples of their own company’s products and
equipment for environmental protection and pollution control. This will enable
participants to develop their presenting skills in “how to get others to use a
piece of equipment correctly”.
DAY THREE
Duration Content and Description
0H30 OVERVIEW OF PREVIOUS DAY
3h30 participants show their awAREness of
the products and equipment available, while demonstrating that they can offer
information on how to control and contain.
1h30 PARTICIPANTS WILL LEAD AN open forum
on personnel, evaluation and reporting. AN EMPLOYEE IS the most important asset
to a companies ems to respond, evaluate or report an incident, to protect or
control pollution of the environment.
1h00 discussion,
questions and conclusion
This training programme brings together the opportunity to share knowledge
and experience, for one purpose only and that is to enhance environmental
protection and pollution control. By increasing one’s own knowledge and sharing
it with others, we will all become aware of the environment in which we work
and that which surrounds us. This is, therefore, a training programme that
assists us in sharing and understanding information, which becomes the basis
for all other environmental training programmes. Training-The-Trainer is an
important function of awareness in general.
