Training Programme Delivery Methods

A major part of the training programme planning process is determining how the programme will be delivered. The delivery approach selected will depend on, among other factors, the nature and context of the training, target group characteristics and available resources. Among the delivery methods that might be considered are:

  • Face-Face-Classroom/Training Room
  • Training via books and manuals
  • Training by live radio and television
  • Training via computer

Programme Objectives

Programme Objectives are trainable parts of the programme goal that indicate desired outcomes of the training programme

Programme Goal

Goals are long-range accomplishments towards which programmes are directed. Goals provide general direction and are often difficult to measure.


These are examples of resources (teaching aids) that are used in teaching illiterate adults

Define Target Group

Traget Group: The target group of individuals for which the training programme is planned.

Training Rationale

Start by providing a clear rationale for the proposed Training Programme. This is usually a statement that gives a general overview of what the training is about.

about my job




I am a trained special education teacher. However my experience in that area is limited. I have not work in the classroom in that capacity since I left college one year ago. The only experience I have as a special education teacher is on teaching practice. Presently I work with HEART trust NTA on the Lift up Jamaica Programme.
My job entails a lot of travelling. It takes me to most of the parishes in Jamaica. I do not work in the traditional school room. Most of the time my classes are kept in churches, police stations, community centers or any room that is available.
My job is enjoyable, however it is challenging. Most of the learners are illiterate or semi illiterate adults.
