Home / Inclusive Training

One of I-STEP’s four core areas

Inclusive Training

Inclusive Training develops inclusive learning processes, capacity building and practical resources for the people who deliver them.

Inclusive by design

Inclusive means designing learning that removes barriers before participants encounter them, making high-quality education accessible, adaptable and meaningful for diverse learners.

Inclusive Training focuses on how learning experiences are designed, facilitated, documented and shared so that effective practice can be adapted across organisations, countries and contexts.

What this area covers

A method only matters if someone else can run it. Inclusive Training works on the design of learning itself: how a session is structured, how a facilitator is prepared, how a resource is written so that a stranger in another country can pick it up and use it well. It covers training design, capacity building for educators and practitioners, and the documentation that makes good practice transferable rather than personal.

Who it is for

Facilitators, trainers, educators, learning designers, capacity-building organisations and actors committed to improving professional practice.

What members can develop together

Training designs tested in more than one context Facilitator guides that assume no prior contact with the authors Accessible materials by default, not on request Honest evaluation of what did and did not work Documentation that enables others to replicate and improve effective practice
