At PRIA International Academy, our hybrid training workshops are designed to give you the best of both worlds: the flexibility of online learning and the hands-on experience of in-person workshops. We organise and deliver our own expert-led training sessions; while also designing customised training solutions for organisations based on their team’s specific learning needs.
Whether you’re a student, professional, or practitioner, these workshops help you dive deeper into your field and apply what you learn in real-life situations.
How the Hybrid Training Works?
- Our hybrid training methods are thoughtfully structured to make learning effective and engaging
- Online self-learning (1 week): Learn at your own pace with carefully designed online modules
- Live webinar (1 - 2 hours): Connect with trainers and peers to discuss concepts and clarify doubts
- In-person workshop (3 - 5 days): Apply your knowledge through interactive, practical sessions
Workshops are scheduled at different times throughout the year, so you can plan ahead. Seats are limited, so it’s best to register early.

Since 1982, over 30,000 learners have benefited from our training programs, gaining valuable skills through a blend of online and offline learning. Our experienced trainers guide you every step of the way, ensuring you get both knowledge and practical exposure.

Workshop on Participatory Training Methodology
A 3-day, practice-focused Training of Trainers (ToT) that helps facilitators and educators move from theory to action.
This 3-day Training of Trainers (ToT) on Participatory Training Methodology is designed for facilitators, educators, youth leaders, and development practitioners who wish to strengthen their capacity to design and deliver impactful participatory training programmes.
Unlike the online course, which focuses on conceptual understanding, this ToT moves a step further from theory to practice. The focus is on doing, reflecting, and improving. It emphasizes hands-on practice, peer learning, feedback, and reflective facilitation. Participants will engage in real-time facilitation practice, session design, and reflection on trainer identity and facilitation style. Through simulations, role-plays, group work, and feedback sessions, participants will not only learn about participatory training methods but also practice them in real time.
At the end of the training, participants will be able to design and facilitate participatory sessions, incorporate feedback, and articulate their own trainer identity and facilitation style
