Two new courses added!
These courses are; Time Management and The Power of Influence.
The first of these, 'Time Management', looks practically at the topic of personal effectiveness and how you can help your participants stop and take stock of how they are working and then make the best use of their time.
The second is 'The Power of Influence', which has been developed to help your participants understand the core principles of influencing and how they can be practically applied.
Both courses are priced at just £68, have never been available before and will make an excellent addition to your training resources. Visit us at http://www.trainerbubble.com/ to view the contents of these and our growing selection of Trainer Resources.

Training Game Idea - Coming up trumps!
You probably remember the popular game Trumps. Well this training game is based on that theory. The instructions are as follows...
1. Cut out 20 or so playing card sized pieces of white card (you may create more or less as needed).
2. At the top of each card, write the name of the topic you wish participants to learn about (we will use the mythical 'Peculiar Bank' Credit Card as our example)
4. Write the categories shown below on each of the cards and place the 'facts' next to each category. For Example:
5. Create a card for each topic you wish the participants to learn about (in our case we would select different companies credit cards)
6. Introduce the cards at the correct time of the session.
7. Shuffle the cards and hand at least one to each of the 'players'
8. The first person should pick a category and read out their score
9. Moving round the group, each player reads out their score for that category. The person with the highest score wins the round and collects all the losing cards. They then put the cards to the bottom of their pile and select the category for the next round.
10. The winner is the person who ends up with all the cards.
Getting across a lot of information can often be difficult during training and it is easy to fall into the trap of just 'telling' the participants. This training game will add a bit of fun and help the participants get the learning in a relaxed way.
I hope you have fun playing!
