Ready, Set, Go!...To The Only Train-the-Trainer Workshop to Bring Out the Awesome in You!
So, you’ve attended other training designs/workshops and you’ve had mixed reactions, right? That won’t be the case with the JIMPACT Bootcamp. By attending this workshop, you’ll “stuff” your training/facilitating toolbox with the best tools imaginable.
Join us for this special two-day workshop to experience the high-impact, results oriented, participant-driven approach of JIMPACT training. Your sessions, workshops, meetings and presentations will never be the same as we challenge you to: 1) tap into your creativity; 2) settle for nothing less than outstanding; 3) get out of your own way; 4) create tons of discovery moments for your learners; and 5) be a superior trainer, facilitator and/or meeting leader. The session leader, Jim Smith, Jr. is one of the most energetic and passionate speakers to come along in recent time. He connects and bonds with his audiences, encouraging them and challenging them to be outstanding.
Are you a superior trainer, facilitator and/or meeting leader?
If not, but you’d like to be, this workshop is for you! During this two-day, high-energy session you will learn participant-driven training and facilitation techniques, adult learning theories,
trainer leadership, proven practices for accelerated learning, group responsibility and learner retention. Participants also learn and practice methods for opening,closing, reviewing and revisiting content and re-energizing their workshops. Creating an empowering and electric learning environment, dealing successfully with difficult participants (including management), applying application methods and installing pre and post session activities are also reviewed and applied.
The JIMPACT Bootcamp provides the Plus! Our proven methods for professional and personal development training, facilitation and skill building will create an exciting, learning and motivational environment where you can examine your current situation and develop action strategies and goals for tomorrow. We create discovery moments before, during and after the workshop. We strive for transfer of training.
This helps us to help you to achieve the organizational and departmental outcomes and behavioral results you seek. We’re very concerned with what occurs after the training. We want you to have a significant return on your investment.
This workshop is designed for new and experienced trainers, meeting facilitators, consultants, managers of training personnel or anyone in your organization (e.g., sales and district managers, subject matter experts, and leaders at all organizational levels) who is interested in developing techniques to improve their training methods, presentation skills and meeting facilitation techniques.

Description of JIMPACT Bootcamp II
A companion workshop to the JIMPACT Bootcamp workshop, the JIMPACT Bootcamp II workshop allows you to take your facilitation and training skills to an even higher level.
During this high-energy session, participants will learn: powerful
and engaging presentation, platform and facilitation skills, adult learning
theories, proven practices for accelerated learning, group responsibility
and learner retention. Participants also learn and practice methods
for: opening and closing presentations, reviewing and revisiting
content, story telling, developing, preparing and organizing their presentations. Creating
an empowering learning and presentation environment and atmosphere, developing
personal presence, poise and energy, dealing successfully with difficult
presentation situations, overcoming stage-fright and nervousness, applying
application methods, asking and answering questions, transitioning, gesturing,
voice modulation, eye movement, using visual aids (namely power point and
flip charts), and installing pre and post session assessments and goal
review are also reviewed and applied.
Each day of the workshop you will experience many of the learning modules,
then practice making a variety of presentations (approximately four to
five in total over the two days). You will have an opportunity to
practice planned and impromptu presentations (e.g., leading openers, closers,
reviews and discussions). Each of your presentations will be videotaped
as you work toward your final “work related” presentation on
the last day. This content related presentation will call for you
to incorporate as many workshop learnings as possible. 
Throughout
the workshop, you will receive real-time feedback from your session leader
and peers as you work at JIMPACT Bootcamp II.
While some modules are a review from the JIMPACT Bootcamp workshop as reinforcement of previous learning, new sample activities and tips are provided. Previous completion of the JIMPACT Bootcamp workshop is not required for enrollment in JIMPACT Bootcamp II.
