The Trainer's Edge - TAPD Training & Assessment Professional Development
You became a trainer or assessor because you wanted to make a difference. This podcast helps you do exactly that with more confidence, more skill, and more impact.
Hosted by Donna Moulds RTO CEO for 13 years, qualified Trainer and Assessor with over 23 years in the field, including Vocational Manager in a maximum-security correctional facility. The Trainer's Edge delivers practical strategies for professionals who take their practice seriously.
Each episode covers what actually matters: training design, delivery, learner engagement, workplace assessment, and the professional development that sets great trainers apart from average ones.
Whether you're new to VET or a seasoned practitioner, this is your edge.
