ISCP Instructional Skills Certification On -Demand Training

In ICT it is possible to find professionals of high technical level whose communication skills and transmission of knowledge are not the most appropriate to generate learning. Due to this problem that Nanfor has had since 1988 it has developed training courses of trainers applied to ICT, since traditional training of trainers courses suffer from the ICT component, not only for the contents to be shown but for the type of person who will receive the course, their concerns, psychology and final objectives of the training. In the market there are many training courses for trainers that are not carried out by experts in ICT knowledge transmission, aspects on 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 high technical level who obtain day-to-day evaluations of their higher courses of 4.5 out of 5.
