Certification Process

Prospective trainers are immersed in the course material for the 40-hour program. The learn-by-doing approach holds true for the Certified Trainer programs as well. A key component to the proven success of the 10-hour courses of Job Relations, Job Instruction, and Job Methods is the real-life examples participants bring in to practice the four-step method with. Therefore, Trainers need to be adept at quickly and proficiently sizing up a situation and teaching the applicable method for these real-life examples.

Detailed trainer manuals are provided to Trainers. These manuals outline specifically how to deliver the course content and use the facilitation kit. All 10-hour classes are delivered according to the manual ensuring success for the Certified Trainer and students.

The training environments are positive and always facilitated by a Certified Master Trainer. The programs are standardized to ensure consistency of content but flexible enough to foster a learning environment for each student. Class sizes are kept small (4 - 6) to allow one-on-one interaction with the Master Trainer.

Written evaluations outlining delivery strengths and opportunities for improvement are provided as a training aid for each student. The Certified Master Trainer will work with each student to ensure that the TWI material is delivered correctly, consistently, and successfully.   A Certificate of Completion will be issued to those who satisfactorily complete each 40-hour trainer program.  These individuals will have displayed a clear understanding of the Training Delivery Manual and demonstrated to the TWI Institute Master Trainer the ability to use these materials to successfully deliver the “J” program as trained

Certified Trainers are encouraged to stay in contact with the TWI Institute. The TWI Institute is a forum for sharing experiences, a source for training guides and materials, and a liaison for companies interested in receiving TWI training. A minimum of quarterly course deliveries aids Certified Trainers in keeping current with the material and ensuring student success. The TWI Institute requests candidates to sign a Memorandum of Understanding to protect the integrity of the TTT module, ensuring the delivery stays true to the original tenets of the TWI-Service legacy.
