Training Course Outline

Most people have been at a party or some other social occasion where someone has told an inappropriate joke and ruined the mood (at least temporarily). Likewise, we have all been somewhere where the class clown is able to lighten the mood and help people have fun. The good news is that humour can help you make your training sessions just as engaging as those fun social occasions. Even better, you do not need to be the class clown or an award winning comedian to do it. This one-day workshop will help you identify what kind of humour you can bring to the classroom, and how games can help you engage your participants.
