I-OBJECTIVES
1. Illustrate the perfect training site.
2. Identify the factors to be considered in selecting a training site.
3. Elaborate the types of seating arrangement.
II-INTRODUCTION
{Why we need a comfortable training site for our trainees?
Recognizing the trainee, learning can be facilitated through both mental and physical
involvement, it is important to consider this when choosing, designing or deciding a
training space.
Because training classes nowadays involve online learning, teamwork, physical
movement and quite contemplation, spaces need flexible furniture and equipment that can
be moved within the class. The key is to have a classroom that is able to accommodate a
wide variety of activities and instructor-learner,learner-learner and learner-content
interaction.
III-MATERIALS
Power point presentation, fact sheets and test questionnaire
IV-PROCEDURE
A. Activity
The reporter will show 2 video clips, and let the participants share their ideas in
finding the difference between the two video clips.
B. Analysis
The reporter will ask:
Based on the video clips shown, do you have any idea about our new topic?
C. Abstraction
Training Site refers to the room where training will be conducted.
Features of a good training site
1. It is comfortable and accessible.
2. It is quite private, and free from interruptions.
3. It has sufficient space for trainees to move around easily.
DETAILS TO BE CONSIDERED IN THE TRAINING ROOM
(the reporter will show a picture analysis on the slide)
1. NOISE
Check for noise from heating and air conditioning systems, adjacent rooms and
corridors and outside the building.

2. 2. COLORS
Pastel hues such as oranges, greens, blues, and yellows are warm colors variation of
white are cold and sterile. Blacks and brown shades will close the room psychologically
and become fatiguing.
3. ROOM STRUCTURE
Use rooms that are somewhat square in shape.
4. LIGHTING
The main source of light should be fluorescent lights. Incandescent lighting should
be spread throughout the room and used with dimmers.
5. WALLAND FLOOR COVERING
Only meeting related materials should be on the wall.
6. MEETING ROOM CHAIRS
Chairs should have wheels and swivels, and backs that provide support for the
lower lumbar region.
7. GLARE
Check and eliminates glare from metal surfaces, TV monitors,and mirrors.
8. CEILING
Ten-foot-high ceiling are preferable.
9. ELECTRICAL OUTLETS
Outlets should be available every six feet around the room. Make sure that
outlets are available for trainees to plug in their laptops, if necessary.
10. ACOUSTICS
Check the bounce or absorption of sound from the walls, ceiling, floor, and
furniture.
11. TECHNOLOGY
Check that the room has permanent screens and a computer with internet access
for the trainer (if necessary).
{ SEATING ARRANGEMENTS {
Seating arrangement at the training site should be based on understanding of the
desired type of trainee interaction and trainee- trainer interaction.
Types of seating arrangement
1. Fan-type seating
Conducive in allowing trainees to see from any point in the room. Trainees can easily
switch from listening to a presentation to practicing in groups. And trainees can
communicate easily with everyone in the room.

3. 2. Classroom-type seating
Used if the training involves knowledge acquisition, with lecture and audiovisual
presentation being the primary training method.
3. Conference type seating
Used if the training emphasizes total-group discussion with limited
presentation and no small-group interaction.
4. Horseshoe arrangement
Used if the training requires both presentation and total group instruction.
V- APPLICATION
Let the participant answer this question
Why we need to choose and prepare the training site for our trainees?
VI- ASSESSMENT
Let the participants answer the test paper that will be given by the reporter.
