Train. Assess. Facilitate. (TAF) is a 5 day long face-to-face training course for trainers and facilitators. The training curriculum is based on solid academic research, neuroscience and andragogy, bringing structure and evidence-base to the art of teaching.
We believe that quality learning saves resources, time, and ultimately lives. Many of our colleagues are regularly asked to train others, and we want to support them in doing so professionally and effectively.
TAF welcomes both experienced facilitators who already lead training events and those who would like to become more involved in surge training initiatives.
Through this programme, we contribute to making humanitarian response as local as possible. Our goal is to ensure that expertise in designing and delivering high-quality learning exists in every corner of the world — without relying solely on a small group of facilitators.
Words from TAF graduates:
- “I’ll never organise a training the same way again after all that I’ve learned here this week. Thank you for your time, expertise and energy!”
- "It was eye opening, helped me assess my abilities as a facilitator, identify my weak points and how to improve. I enjoyed every bit of it and I'm grateful."
- “It covered all the training curve from design to facilitation and evaluation/assessment. I feel I now have a structured overview.”
- “I really enjoyed this training and felt like I learned a lot of very practical things, many of which I will immediately put to use in both my professional and personal lives.”
- “I particularly appreciated how the content can be applied even to short presentations/learning moments.”
- "I have learned so much during this training that it’s hard to put into words. Had I completed the TAF last year, I would have approached my work this year completely differently—and I am convinced it would have been more effective, efficient, and impactful (while saving a lot of time!). THANK YOU for the quality and effort you put into making TAF such a meaningful experience"
- "It is evident that your efforts are progressively enhancing the impact and quality of trainings across the IFRC network".
