Learning factors
Four main learning factors
Perceiving othersMotivation
UnderstandingMemorization
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 11
Awareness of one’s own- progress
Practical application
The relationship with the trainer
The link between new materials and experience
Group dynamics and group participation
A clear vision of objectives to be reached
Affective factors contributing to positive motivation
Motivation
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 12
Motivation
The trainer must:
Identify and take into account the areas of interest of the trainees Specify objectives Facilitate exchanges Encourage expression of difficulties Use pictures Provide practical exercises and role plays
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 13
Three important factors influence perception
Perception
The person perceiving The person who is perceived
The situation
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 14
Memorization
There are two types of memory
Short-term memory Long-term memory
The difference between these two types of memory resides in the assimilation process.
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 15
Memorization
Assimilation is based on three factors
Motivation Techniques
Reactivation

Assessment
Two types of assessment
Assessments enable implementation of any required corrective measures
Assessment of acquired notions
Used to measure any discrepancies between the results obtained and
the initial objectives
Satisfaction assessment
Enables trainees to express their own points of view upon completion of the
training session

IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 57
Designing a National training program (NTP)
Based on needs assessment
Specify for each training program• teaching objectives• target audience• resources required• requirement to approve training program or center
Take into account• available national resources and skills• possibility of drawing upon additional international skills or resources
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 58
Assessment of national training program
Were objectives reached?
Define performance indicators for
performance of NTP (National Training Program) Impact in the field of NTP
Coverage in terms of needs requirements
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 59
Difficulties in radiation protection training
Heterogeneous audiences
Differences in level of motivation
Emotional perception of ionizing rays
• Age• Level of education
• Age• Job• Person +/- working in field: "is persuaded he/she already knows"
• Irrational fears• Habitual risks not taken seriously enough
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 60
Comparison of different teaching methods
Method Advantages Disadvantages
Classroom training
(including the theorie, hands-on work and
demonstrations)
Training in work situation
Distance learning
Easy to organize Fecilitates exchanges Let‘s you adjust your teaching stile to audience
Acquire operational skills Adapter course duration to individual needs and technology involved
Avoid moving students Teacher one student is really available Enables acquisition of knowledge
Takes a great deal of time Requires specific infrastructures Operational role plays are difficult to implement
Acquiring knowledge is difficult Contents defined on a case-by-care basis Critical role of „Course master“
Specific teaching tools No hands-on role plays possible Only knowledge may be assessed
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 61
Designing a new training program: Prior to training
Design of training program Teaching objectives and sub-objectives Syllabus Teaching methods, program and schedule
Find trainers with the technical and teaching skills you need

Tasks to perform during training session
Produce teaching materials Documents required for assessment of acquired notions Certificate or diploma Provide interface between trainers and participants Cover requirements in logistics Manage the unexpected
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 65
It is better not to train than to train if you are NOT going to assess!
Purpose of assessment of acquired notions
Check that teaching objectives have been reached ... by each participant
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 66
The different types of assessment techniques
Assessment methods
Numerical calculations Problems requiring synthetic approach Multiple choice
Purpose of assessment
Knowledge assessment
Skills assessment
Operational skills assessment
On schoolwork site:
Ability to perform specific predefined manipulations Ability to react to abnormal simulated situations
Ability to perform job related tasks Ability to respond in cases of incidence or accidents

Point of view of employer and/or regulatory body Selection of performance indicators, evolution in indicators
Expert's technical point of view Independent audits
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 69
Record-Keeping
Keep records and ensure long-term traceability of information indispensable for regulatory bodies
Who has been trained How was he trained What were the results Dates of refresher courses Dates of acquisition of qualification etc.
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 70
Setting up a training center
Advantages
For an improved teaching process• Uniform approach to training programs
Optimize means• Pool course materials
For a better follow-up with respect to regulatory stipulations• Reference point for personnel qualification• Record-keeping center for skills acquired
In order to better communicate• Reference point for information on effects of ionizing rays
IAEA Module XI – Trainer training 71
Process of setting up a training center
Training Center: Defining structural and operational criteria
Accreditation of training centers by appropriate independent or regulatory bodies
Evaluation
National Training program:Training needs assessment and
Identification of resources required to meet those needs
