Training From The Back of the Room (TBR) Practitioner Class

In a nutshell:

"Training from the Back of the Room" is a fresh approach to learning, training, presenting and facilitating. Developed by Sharon Bowman, TBR uses cognitive neuroscience and brain-based learning techniques. The concept is recognized internationally as one of the most effective frameworks for accelerated learning.

During the two days of certified classes, you will experiment with many different TBR related concepts and techniques to enhance learning in your professional environment (including training, meetings, workshop, coaching, consulting).

Is it for me?

TBR classes are game-changers and eye-openers for everyone interested in improving the way they learn by using cognitive neuroscience. It's especially useful for (but not limited):

• Corporate and Non-Corporate trainers
• University Lectures and Teachers
• Agile Coaches, Scrum Trainers, Team facilitators
• Coaches, Psychologists
• Learning and Development Professionals
• HR & Marketing Professionals
• Executives

Should I prepare?

Not really. Three weeks before the training you will receive some reading suggestions. In case you'd like to read or learn more before the classes, please let us know. We always have a lot of extra materials to share with our attendees.

Is there anything else I should know?

For your comfort, we keep the class size from 8 to a maximum of 12 attendees. Classes are thought in English. Unless all attendees are Polish and we decide together with the group to switch the language before we run the classes.

Will I get a certificate?

Yes, you will! Justyna is a certified TBR trainer who can issue a TBR Practitioner Certificate of completion for you. In order to complete the classes, we require your full engagement and presence in the full two days of training.
