How to Facilitate Virtual Training | The Vritual Training Team

Facilitating virtual training can feel daunting at first. With many different platforms to choose from and ever-changing software, it may seem difficult to know where to start. To help those of you who are feeling a bit lost in the virtual world, we have compiled tips for three key areas of virtual training that apply whether you’re using Teams or Zoom – and should even withstand the next software update.

Breakout Groups
We all know the feeling.  We are in a breakout group, and then suddenly, the facilitator appears.  We all react differently to this situation.  Some of us close down and go quiet; others begin speaking for the first time, knowing that they are being observed.



At The Virtual Training Team, we have spent countless hours experimenting with breakout groups, working to ensure our groups run as effectively as possible.

  • Outcome time checks
  • Process time checks
  • Countdown time checks
