Medication Administration Train The Trainer Course
Our Medication Administration Train the Trainer Course helps transform care sector workers into fully qualified and capable trainers of a superior calibre. Along with the most important teachings on the subject of medication, the course also covers strong and effective teaching habits in order to ensure successful delegates leave with the skills and confidence necessary to organise and chair accredited medication training courses.
Candidates can choose to take the course as a standalone unit in its own right, or to combine the Medication Administration Train the Trainer training course with a Level 3 or Level 4 Award in Education and Training – the latter enabling the trainer to offer recognised certificates/qualifications to their own delegates upon successful completion.
