HOW THE TRAINING WORKS

Learn it. Apply it. Get it reviewed. Improve it.

Every important skill moves through explanation, demonstration, guided use and independent application. Trainer feedback is used to revise the work before it becomes part of the final portfolio.

01

Concept briefing

The trainer explains the principle, use case, limitations and the quality standard expected.

02

Live demonstration

A complete task is demonstrated while the trainer explains decisions, checks and common mistakes.

03

Guided lab

Learners repeat the method with support, ask questions and correct problems during the session.

04

Applied assignment

The same method is used on a different brief so the learner must make independent decisions.

05

Review and revision

Work is checked against a rubric, revised after feedback and prepared for project presentation.
