What is the difference between training and facilitating?

Training and facilitating are approaches to helping individuals learn and develop skills, and the two have some key differences.

Training generally involves a more structured and formal approach to learning, where a trainer delivers information or instruction to a group of learners. The trainer typically has expertise in the subject matter and uses various techniques to convey information, such as lectures, presentations, demonstrations, and hands-on activities. The goal of training is to transfer knowledge or skills to the learners, and the success of the training is typically measured by how well the learners can apply what they’ve learned.

Facilitation is a more collaborative approach to learning that focuses on helping individuals or groups work together to achieve a specific goal or objective. A facilitator does not need expertise in the subject matter but offers processes expertise in leading the group through exploration, problem-solving, and decision-making. The facilitator uses various techniques to encourage participation, promote communication and collaboration, and ensure that the group stays focused on the task. Facilitation success is typically measured by how well the group works together and achieves its goals.
