Master Participant-Centered Trainer Certification

For over 30 years, clients have been applying The Bob Pike Group’s Participant-Centered instructional system to build their learning organizations, to strengthen retention and to enrich desired results. Now, The Bob Pike Group Institute is offering an advanced training professional credential to share its expertise and experience and establish a valuable professional benchmark within the training community.

The BPG Institute’s Master Participant-Centered Trainer Certification is a unique professional opportunity for trainers and instructors to earn an advanced credential focused on maximizing learner participation, retention and results. The MPCT certification sets a standard for training excellence as it requires participants to achieve a minimum of a level three evaluation outcome-behavior changes (Kirkpatrick, 1994) from the certification process. It is the only Master Trainer certification of its kind in the US training industry.

“Today, we live in a world where the learning is never going to stop. As students we were told to learn, but few of us were ever taught to learn. This certificate program helps you learn how to learn -- and at the same time shows you how to apply the same processes and techniques to the training you design and deliver,” said Bob Pike. “It also provides you with a rubric that helps you understand and explain why not all performance problems can be solved through training – and what the five other alternatives are that should be explored first. Master Trainers, before receiving certification, will be proficient in most, if not all, of our workshops and will have demonstrated the ability to apply what they have learned.”

The Bob Pike Group Institute faculty members are acknowledged for having extensive academic grounding and real-world application of the principles they teach and are certified through Bob Pike’s rigorous selection process. They are active consultants and published writers with more than 20 books to their credit. Each has vast corporate and educational experience from which they draw.

What makes it THE certificate to get? “It is less about getting a piece of paper and more about what you experience in the process,” Pike said. “There is extremely high participation and personalization of the content in order to make each part of the experience of practical value for each candidate. Each and every class models the techniques and processes that you’ll be mastering and applying in your own work. In short you’ll learn more, better, faster, and easier and be able to apply the same methods to your own professional practice.”
