How to choose a training

These recommendations apply specifically to open trainings - those that people attend by paying their own money. This is unlikely to be suitable for corporate options, when the choice of training and the need to attend it is determined by management.

Why do you need training?

The first thing you need to decide is whether you need training at all? What do you want from him?
Many people go to training on the most various reasons, although training is one of the main ones. I will list the most common options below.

• learn new things- training provides new knowledge;
• gaining skills- trainings give skills, but books and films only give knowledge, besides, during the trainings the trainer and other participants demonstrate skills, and in many ways the learning takes place unconsciously, based on what you observe;
• Feedback- at the training you can get high-quality feedback about how well you are doing;
• have a good time- trainings are also leisure, but with benefit;
• Interesting- many people are simply interested in learning new things and meeting new people;
• motivation- to gain a skill you need to train, it often doesn’t work out at home, but once you come to the training you need to practice;
• new company- they go to training quite well interesting people, with certain interests, because not every person wants to spend their own time and money on training;
• problem solving- at many trainings they teach you how to solve problems - both your own and others’;
• interesting communication- here you can chat on different topics, how this can be within the framework of exercises;
• personal growth- many people simply like to “improve themselves”;
• expand the boundaries- training gives you the opportunity to go beyond your usual limitations, even those you don’t know about;
• creation- many trainings train creativity and help you express yourself.

This is only part of the reasons why and why people go to trainings. Wherein there may be several reasons- in fact, the good thing about training is that here you can simultaneously learn new things, spend time, and communicate with interesting people.

But in what cases for trainings It's not worth walking. Here I will express my personal thoughts.

• "You don't need to train me, I I don't want to train";
• there is a specific problem, like “quit smoking” or “get rid of the fear of flying”, and the person is not going to learn how to solve such problems “at all” - in this case it is better to contact a consultant, the result will most likely be achieved better and faster;
• no desire to study in a group - in this case, you can either try to study on your own, or hire yourself a coach (individual trainer);
• knowledge is needed, not skills- if you are interested only in knowledge, but not skills, it is better to turn to books that teach computer programs, video recordings;
• mental illness- trainings are not focused on the treatment of such diseases, it is better to consult a specialist.

Criterias of choice

What to consider when choosing a training:

• subject- whether the training teaches the skills you need;
• trainer- a lot depends on him whether you like his style conducting, presentation of information, charisma, etc.;
• time- trainings are evening (2-4 hours in the evening), for the whole weekend (Saturday - Sunday entirely), intensive (5-20 days in a row);
• place- if the trainings are held in the evening, you want to be able to get there very quickly, and you can go to another city for the intensive course;
• price- an important parameter;
• People- what kind of people go to classes, are you comfortable around them;
• pleasure- and most importantly, do you get satisfaction from the process?

What exactly is more important to you is up to you to decide. There are people for whom the topic is not so important, as long as it is interesting - an interesting coach and group are important. For another person, skills and a convenient time and place are more important.

What skills are needed?

If you want to gain a specific skill, you should choose the appropriate training. For example, there is general programs, like "Practician" NLP" or "Master NLP", which train universal skill sets. There are also trainings focused on more specialized skills (I am writing for our center):

• effective communication - "Mastery of Communication" ;
• Effective thinking and problem solving skills - "Successful Thinking" ;
• ability to speak in public - "Oratory" ;
• methods of working with beliefs, both our own and others - "Changing Beliefs" ;
• effective use of trance states - "Dive".

Try it

"Better to see once than hear a hundred times". In order to accept correct solution, it’s worth trying it all for yourself. Descriptions and impressions of other people are one thing, but your own experience is completely different. Most trainings are held in our center first lesson is free- so you can participate and decide how much you need it. People are different, and “one person loves watermelon rind, while another loves pork cartilage.” Go to free lesson, take part in the process, look at the coach. Maybe you are satisfied with the coach and the group, but this is not exactly the topic that interests you. Or the theme is the same, but the style conducting you're not too happy with it. But in this training everything fits perfectly. Try it and then make a decision.

With the current wealth of choice, how to distinguish good training from bad or, even worse, harmful, and what constitutes good training in general? Venerable professionals of the NERS.ru forum share their opinions on this matter.

Mammoth hunting

As you know, training is not a dry lecture at a desk, not a seminar in which participants strive to indulge in a sweet slumber after a couple of hours. Training is active form learning, difficult organized process, during which the theory, as they say, without leaving the cash register, is reinforced by practice for better assimilation of what has been covered. The training is not about hammering home scientific-theoretical, abstract gobbledygook, but rather about adjusting the knowledge and skills students already have with the help of intelligible additional information.

In general, training in one form or another has existed since time immemorial. Perhaps from those glacial times, when prehistoric shamans with tambourines, rattles and spells taught their fellow tribesmen how to effectively hunt mammoths. Our infinitely distant ancestors even then understood that influencing a group of people can be much more effective than influencing one specific person. And those tribes where the shamanic practice of influence was more successful had a greater chance of surviving the ruthless process of natural selection.
