Illumine Training has been running highly successful Mind Mapping courses since 1996. In that time the company has become the world's leading provider of Mind Mapping training and has decided to make that experience available to trainers who wish to teach Mind Mapping effectively. In recent years we have seen increasing demand and have therefore developed a programme to address this by offering suitable trainers the opportunity to learn how to teach Mind Mapping effectively and have the opportunity of becoming an Illumine Certified Trainer™.
What do I have to do?
Stage 1 - Illumine Business Mapping/Mind Mapping for Education
Attend our 1 day course (Illumine Business Mapping or Mind Mapping for Education) to learn the principles of Mind Mapping and how to use Mind MapsŪ effectively yourself.
Illumine Business Mapping or Mind Mapping for Education will enable you to think more creatively and incisively, plan more effectively, improve your memory and raise your effectiveness in the work place to ever higher levels.

This programme will be most effective if you want to incorporate Mind Mapping into your own training programmes. It will ensure that you understand the principles of Mind Mapping from your delegate's point of view so that they can teach it to others effectively.
