I'm not sure that's true Jim. Over the years I was an Excel Partnership tariner, quite a few people came to class with the expectation that they were going to 'take back' their experiences of learning in class to teach other auditors.........
That's really scary, when you think about it, isn't it? Here's someone who has only the experience of auditing - in the class room - and who knows what competency to train! Plus, the materials they have aren't the 'instructor manual', so what are they going to use to convey concepts etc????
And that's even before you take a closer look to see if they violated our copyright, which I had found in the past.....
No, without (wide ranging) experience most of this type of skills training is ineffective, IMHO!
