Training the trainer

I am running into problems with a train the trainer for the third time in as many programs - its funny how much attention we put into the design of programs for participants when I look at how little time we spend focusing on the required learning for educators.

I guess we just figure that educators are ready, and don't need any new knowledge or skill in order to deliver the program we have designed.

OR maybe we think that the number of educators is small (often n=1) so designing training is too much work. However, with only one person, it makes the need for proper preparation even higher.

I am not sure that we will solve this anytime soon, but I would be excited to see a T3 actually designed as deliberately as a program overall.
