Training from the Back of the Room Virtual Edition (TBR-VE)

The Virtual TBR-VE™ Class 

In this practical and interactive 5-module virtual class, you’ll explore current “brain science” as it relates to human learning in virtual environments. You’ll discover 6 specific brain-science principles and a 4-step instructional design model that you can use in your own virtual teaching and training. And you’ll leave with dozens of new ideas, activities, resources, and a new “Gold Standard” for virtual instruction and learning.

The class consists of five 2.5-hour live-streaming modules (a total of 12.5 hours of class time usually spaced over 2 – 3 weeks). There are also about 2 hours of independent “homework” assignments between each module. Upon completion of the class and the assignments, you will receive a TBR-VE™ Class “Certificate of Completion” and will be invited to become a member of the global TBR Practitioners Group on Slack. 

After your active participation in the TBR-VE™ Class, you will be able to:

• Apply 6 The Six Trumps™ brain-science principles to any virtual/remote training you facilitate;
• Use the 4Cs Map to design/deliver brain-based virtual instruction;
• Create virtual classes that combine your own topic and materials with the brain-based concepts and strategies from the class;
• Choose from dozens of virtual brain-based learning activities;
• Become an active member of the TBR Practitioners Group on Slack.
