Extra Activities
ICE-Breaking :
The training begins at these hours. In this, through team and intellectual play, all the trainees are taken out of the mental barrier of age, position, experience, education and the feeling that you are an apprentice is instilled in everyone.
During this hour, it helps to get all the trainees out of their office environment and adjust to the training environment.
Expectations and agreements
Ice – This hour is held after the breaking hour. In this, the trainees are asked to submit a paper on group discussion and brain storming method and what topics should be taught from your training. They are then given a module created by the training institutes and assured that their expectations are met by the institute. Then during this training period, the expectations of discipline and active participation in the training from the trainees of the organization are expressed and the feeling that both sides are bound in the agreement is tied to the agreement, so there is a feeling that expectations need to be met on both sides. This action does not impose any module on us, but it creates a sense of belonging and responsibility in the trainees that we are taking the suggested topics. Also, the training done by the organization is checked to see if the need analysis is appropriate.
