Training from the BACK of the Room – Virtual Edition
THE BEST OF BRAIN-BASED INSTRUCTION, TRAINING AND LEARNING
Virtual Edition
Become a skillful virtual trainer leveraging Brain Science to make learning stick
The official “Training from the BACK of the Room – virtual edition” (TBR-VE) Practitioner Class is a globally-acclaimed, interactive, skills-building train-the-trainer class for anyone who is a trainer, teacher, instructor, coach, or facilitator of learning.
The 5 TBR-VE Class Modules relate directly to human learning in virtual environments. You will be introduced to the cognitive neuroscience concepts – the brain science behind all effective instructional design. You will explore how the human brain actually learns, which is very different from traditional assumptions about learning. You’ll leave with dozens of new ideas, activities, resources, and a new “Gold Standard” for virtual instruction and learning.
during this virtual setting
You’ll learn six powerful learning principles based on the best of brain science
You’ll be able to apply these principles every time you train, teach, instruct, or coach others. You’ll also experience and collect dozens of interactive instructional strategies that you can use with any topic and any group of learners.
You’ll use the 4Cs Instructional Design Map
A powerful 4-step design and delivery model you will be able to use to create training plans specific to topics you already teach.

Brain Building Blueprints
Here's what people are saying, “Brain Building Blueprints” is a brilliantly designed and practical flip book full of easy-to-use activities, for any topic, or subject area, and for any level of learner. The trainer or teacher simply flips the pages until they come to the activities of their choice for each of the 4Cs Map steps –and voilá! The learning activities are “mapped” and ready to use in any learning environment.
As a manager, this class is something that I wanted the whole team to experience. Because this is something that we all will I think cherish for the rest of our careers about how we teach and train and facilitate whatever activities we do with our teams and groups of people that we work with. So, for me, I think it’s a dream come true.
I really appreciate that time you spend, the kind of energy you bring, the warmth used to create the environment. I think it’s amazing. I am really truly honored to be part of your class.
