Train-the-Trainer

Select International’s Train-the-Trainer Interviewing Workshop teaches qualified people how to train others to conduct effective and structured behavioral interviewing. Participants come away with the knowledge, skills, abilities, and materials they’ll need to conduct Select Interviewing^® training sessions.

The primary goal of Select International’s Train-the-Trainer Workshop is to ensure that qualified trainers understand the following well enough to impart the knowledge to others:

• Key concepts associated with past behavior, motivational fit, and situational interview questions
• Definitions of the job-related competencies included in the structured interview guides
• Methodology behind conducting effective interviews
• Accurate assessment of candidate responses using the evaluation guidelines

After three days of comprehensive training, each person who successfully completes Select International’s Train-the-Trainer Workshop will be certified to conduct Select Interviewing training sessions.

Select Interviewing maximizes time, without sacrificing content, by breaking down the Train the Trainer workshop into three main steps:

1. Select Interview Training: Select International believes strongly that people cannot effectively train others how to conduct structured interviews until they have gone through the training themselves. Therefore, the first day of the training focuses on exposing Train-the-Trainer candidates to Select Interviewing. This provides a springboard for the concepts and methods that they will learn later in the workshop, including planning for an interview, avoiding common interview errors and legal pitfalls, and meaningful data integration.

2. Preparation and Conceptualization: Participants are exposed to the psychology behind the Select Interviewing system. Basically, now that you know how to interview, learn why it’s done that way so that you are able to teach others. This is perhaps the most crucial part of the Train-the-Trainer workshop. Participants slowly examine the well laid out training manual, familiarizing themselves with the materials, concepts, and methods. The Preparation and Conceptualization phase of the process involves less instruction and more deduction.

3. Presentation: This last step is where participants bring together everything they have learned and present it to the group. In mock training sessions, participants are asked to present specific portions of the Select Interviewing training – just as if they were training actual interviewers.

As newly certified individuals prepare to conduct their first Select Interviewing training sessions, Select instructors are available to provide support. We understand that, when training something new, the first time is the most difficult, and we want to help all trainers be as effective and prepared as possible.
