For a professional trainer, the greatest measure of success is the success of the participants. Therefore, it’s essential for a professional trainer to have a special set of skills designed to impact the course participants in the desired way.
The Australian Skills Quality Authority states that the most vital skills a trainer needs are knowledge and practice of training and their subject.[i] Alongside these, a trainer also requires certain other essential skills, including those in communication, presentation, facilitation, and evaluation. Following is a list of the most important skills for trainers:
| Presentation Skills | 1 | Be able to create presentations and deliver them clearly and confidently |
| Facilitation | 2 | Know how to engage, manage and direct people and teams |
| Communication Skills | 3 | Communicate with clarity, precision and influence |
| Creativity | 4 | Use creativity to handle situations on the spot |
| Measuring Results from Training | 5 | Identify and measure the different results of training |
| Public Speaking | 6 | To speak to an audience with confidence and control |
| Active Listening | 7 | Listen in a way to understand and respond suitably |
| Continuous Learning | 8 | Engage in learning continuously to develop skills further |
