When thinking about preparing your first training course, many people feel confused about where to start. It doesn’t have to be complicated. The starting point is a topic in which you have real knowledge and personal experience. Choose a specific subject that you can explain easily. One clear topic helps you deliver focused and understandable content.
After choosing the topic, move on to understanding your audience. Imagine the person who will learn from you: What is their level? What do they already know? What do they specifically need? When you understand your learner, it becomes easier to choose the right examples and the right way to explain.
The next step is to organize your content. Think of your course as a path that starts at one point and leads to another. Write your main headings in sequential stages. Do not include too many ideas. Make them connected and clear, and let each part prepare the learner for the next one.
Then, prepare practical examples from life or from your personal experience. Examples give the content a spirit and allow the learner to see the idea as if it is happening in front of them. A clear idea without an example may remain floating, while the example makes it solid and understandable.
After that, pay attention to your delivery and explanation style. Calmness and gradual clarification open the door to understanding. Use language that is close to the ear and the heart, and create space for the learner to absorb what they hear. Your style is what makes the learner remember you.
Finally, don’t wait to be perfect. Your first course will be an experience to learn from and develop your skills. With each new course, you will gain greater ability in explaining, organizing ideas, and managing learners.
