Training Job Profiles


While there is no hard and fast advice when considering a career in IT training there are a number of aspects that you should be aware of and some basic questions that you should answer for yourself before making any firm decisions. Just remember it will not be a 9 till 5 type of career but will give a real sense of job satisfaction.


Considering a new career or just a career shift is a mixture of being proactive about obtaining the relevant new competencies and/or qualifications to assist in the gaining of employment and your expectations of investment by the employer into your development and advancement.


When considering a new career in training, one of the first things you will need is a good and thorough profile of the job that you will be considering. Here, we list full details of the Job Profiles of a Trainer and a Training Officer/Manager.



Job Profile: Trainer


IT trainers generally design and deliver training courses in information and communications technology (ICT). This includes: desktop applications, company-specific software and some more technical-based training to software engineers, technicians, website designers or programmers. IT trainers work in colleges, training companies and within the training departments of large companies and public sector organisations. Many IT trainers are self-employed, and this is a growing trend.


In the UK alone there are 1.2 million people working in IT; this accounts for approximately 2% of all UK employment. All these users require training and consequently there is a growing demand for IT trainers.

Job Profile: Training Manager


A training and development officer/manager manages the learning of an organisation's workforce. The training element gives staff the understanding, practical skills and motivation to carry out particular work-related tasks. The training officer/manager will either deliver training sessions to participants or, alternatively, arrange for others to do so. The development work relates to the ongoing, long-term improvement of employees' skills so that they can fulfil their potential within their organisation.


The training and development manager is responsible for developing a comprehensive training package that encompasses both these elements in order to maintain a motivated and skilled workforce and to fulfil the needs of the organisation.
