Train the Trainer Training Course

Give your trainers the skills to design and deliver their own equality and diversity training sessions

Train the Trainer Training Course

In‑House vs Open Courses

In‑house courses are private sessions delivered exclusively for a group of people from your organisation, on a date that suits you, with the option to tailor the content to your staff and setting.

Open courses are public Equality and Diversity UK training dates that anyone can book onto, ideal when you only need training for one or two people.

Course Overview

This full‑day in‑house course provides a practical introduction to equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) training. It equips your trainers with the knowledge, skills and confidence needed to design and deliver effective EDI sessions for their colleagues. The programme is suitable for anyone involved in training or supporting staff on a one‑to‑one, small‑group or large‑group basis, whether delivered face‑to‑face or online.

Our sessions are tailored to meet the needs of new, developing and experienced trainers. Our Train the Trainer programmes are delivered to small groups to ensure personalised guidance, constructive feedback and a supportive learning environment.

The course is structured to allow ample time for practical activities, video content, shared learning and discussion. Delegates have regular opportunities to practise delivery techniques, build confidence and refine their approach in a safe, encouraging and professionally facilitated setting.

Who is it for?

This course is suitable for delegates with a basic understanding of equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI), even if they have not previously delivered EDI training. A foundational awareness of EDI principles is the only prerequisite.

Participants who already have some training experience and existing EDI knowledge will also benefit, as the programme builds on core concepts while introducing new approaches and practical techniques.

Benefits for established trainers

The course provides experienced trainers with opportunities to:

  • Develop core knowledge - strengthen and extend existing skills
  • Refresh skills - explore new EDI ideas and share best practice
  • Explore current techniques - review modern training approaches and delivery methods

What participants will gain

The programme is designed to equip delegates with the confidence and capability to design and deliver EDI training at all levels. Key learning outcomes include:

  • Understanding equality legislation and outlawed behaviours
  • Managing conflict, entrenched views, and challenging behaviour
  • Recognising and avoiding unconscious bias
  • Applying a range of learning and development techniques
  • Using practical EDI activities and resources to support both individual and group learning
  • Enhancing personal delivery style through guided practice and feedback

Delegates leave with a strong blend of theoretical understanding, practical tools and real‑world techniques to deliver confident, engaging and effective EDI training.
