FROM EXPERT TO KENNETH SMIT TRAINER
You have built a career in sales, management, and/or leadership. You know the practical side of things and what is going on. Perhaps you even have experience as a trainer. Then you also know: you only truly learn the training profession by doing it.
That is why every new franchisee at Kenneth Smit starts with the Trainers Onboarding Program (TOP). In eight weeks, you develop from an expert to a trainer and ultimately to a Kenneth Smit trainer. You gain hands-on experience with groups, get to know our methodology, and discover how to motivate participants.
At the same time, you are building your own business. As a franchisee, you are not only a trainer but also an entrepreneur. You work on acquisition, marketing, client relationships, and the further growth of your practice.
The TOP program helps you firmly establish both roles from the start, so that you enter the market with confidence as both a trainer and an entrepreneur.
THE PROFESSION

You know what you're talking about. Now you learn how to convey it. Didactics, group dynamics, working with real-life situations, and getting to know our working methods: you discover how to translate knowledge into behavior that sticks.
