To be a good facilitator means not only that you possess the basic skills to be able to effectively enable the transfer of knowledge and skills to another person, or group of people, but you must want to learn, improve and expand your own knowledge and skills, both within your profession and as trainer and assessor. Through your own learning and training experiences as an advanced facilitator you will have developed a toolbox of techniques and strategies for dealing with complex situations, learner needs and learning difficulties. Improving and refining these skills is only achieved when you are exposed to situations, contexts and environments that challenge your existing levels of knowledge, skill and understanding.
