Active Participation



Title – Active participation
Date – October 2006

At Beyond The Blue we like to invite those attending our courses to participate fully in the training they are being given. We encourage candidates to provide us with their experiences in order to consider ways to resolve situations that they may have come across in the past, in a more constructive manner.

Sometimes the process of involving individuals is not one that is welcomed at first by the candidates themselves. The natural reaction people have when a group is asked for a volunteer, is to shrink into their chair. But candidates soon learn that our courses rely on them playing a full part in process, for them to gain the maximum benefit from the time we have with them. After the initial shyness we often find that we have too many volunteers, but we always try and ensure that everyone gets a chance.

By demonstrating techniques and providing facilities for the group to break down into smaller groups and workshop certain subject matter, everyone feels part of the session and start to enjoy the process of learning. This approach is taken in all our courses and candidates benefit from the involvement they have. Courses we run include; portfolio of BIIAB Licensed Retail Sector courses; Conflict Management & Resolution (CMR), In-House Security Induction (IHSI), National Certificate for Door Supervisors (NCDS), and Fire Safety (FS)
