For those planning to arrange a venue for staff training, you might already know about the difficulties it brings. After all, there are a number of things you need to consider before making this all-important decision.

And that narrows down to taking it upon yourself to do your homework before you finally rent a training room. Whether you are a seasoned pro, or new to the room booking game, here are our two top tips for booking the perfect training room without feeling the heat.

We no longer live in an ear where a flipchart and some half dried out market pens are the staple of a training room. Now more than ever, you need Wi-Fi, seamless connectivity between devices and big screens, not forgetting technical support included in the hire cost. Some venues have AV technicians on hand to ensure there are no technical hitches on the day.

Also, it is vital to check if room hires cover the little things like complementary water, pens, pads, and blotters, to name a few. The last thing you want is to get caught out by ‘optional extras’ on the day. Be sure to look into this in advance before booking a training room.

Dark, dingy rooms, or rooms full of artificial light make training really difficult going. You don’t want trainees complaining of tired, strained eyes. Neither do you want their concentration wandering with the inevitable headache that kind of environment brings.

Choosing a training room lit with natural light helps keep your trainees alert, receptive and creates a healthy learning environment for everyone. Many training lessons are ruined by inadequate lighting. No wonder you should be more than ready to ditch the basement room and upgrade to bright, natural, light filled room.

Training is vital if you want to increase the skill levels of your employees. The same is to be said for those who would like to get the most from their employees. But to reap maximum benefits, it all starts with choosing the best training room space.

A quality training room has a dedicated in house-events management team, ready to take your enquiry and help make your training session the best it can be. So, what are you waiting for before you finally start searching for the best training room to use.
