Become a Classroom Training Master...
Motivate any trainees, while simultaneously increasing engagement and retention in less time.
When You Finish This Training, You’ll Have a Proven Plan For
TRULY ENGAGING,
APPLICABLE CLASSROOM TRAINING
…That Increases Learner Retention in Less Time with Curriculum You Already Have (Even If It’s Boring)
Ineffective training costs money.
According to Grovo, the total loss to a business from ineffective training is a staggering: $13.5M Per Year per 1,000 employees. Not surprisingly, if you ask most trainers and managers about their training efforts, their responses are typically less than enthusiastic…
“Our learning programs aren’t doing a good job meeting our learner’s needs.”
“I’m not achieving my full potential at work due to lack of developmental opportunities.”
“I don’t know how to apply the skills from the training I received on the job.”
Or the always-popular…
“Training is boring.”
Say what you will about classroom training, but the fact is…
There’s Nothing Boring About INCREASING Your Retention Without Having To Increase Your Training Time
Ordinary trainers may think classroom training is “boring”… …but smart trainers know better.
Smart trainers know that, when executed properly, there’s no faster, easier or more cost-effective way to engage employees to reach their full potential than classroom training.
But how do you do it the right way?
Specifically,
- How do you get your employees excited about your training to attend a class or listen to a lesson so they take the desired action? And then, when they attend…
- How do you get your class engaged (even the difficult learners) and keep them motivated to listen and learn ALL DAY? And once they’re engaged?
- How do you make sure the learning sticks and they can apply the skills from the training they receive to their job? (Their real jobs…not the “Theory” job and DEFINITELY NOT the “Recycle” bin.) Then…
- How do you measure the entire process so that all your new trainers and employees are skilled and you’re not spending more money and time on retraining?
More importantly, these are the questions every MANAGER must be able to answer if they want to fully maximize their training efforts (without having to replace employees as a result of turnover.)
So if you want to make sure that your employees not only are engaged…
…but also are highly motivated, retaining and applying their learning and (most importantly) achieving their full potential (and sticking around because of it), then you need to work on these critical steps.
But how do you do it?
Fortunately, that’s exactly what you’re about to learn…
FACT: Businesses Need Effective Classroom Trainers
(…Who Actually Know What They’re Doing)
I’m not going to sell you on the importance of classroom training. If you’re here, you already know it’s an essential aspect of any training strategy, because effective classroom training:
- Is one of the highest ROI activities in your business…
- Engages employees who are disengaged to achieve their full potential at work resulting in higher retention rates and less labor turnover…
- Makes the workplace a lot more fun and inspiring translating into less money spent on retraining and development.
In other words, effective classroom training on-boards, engages and retains quality employees…and it can save money as a result. So that’s why businesses need effective classroom trainers.
There’s just one problem: Most so called “classroom trainers” aren’t as effective as employees would like them to be.
That’s where you come in.
As a Certified Classroom Training Specialist, you are uniquely qualified to help business onboards, engages and retains quality employees through effective classroom training.
More specifically, in this master class, you’ll learn:
- How to create TRUST with each trainee before class even starts… (Do this right and you’ll see participants crave your class and want only YOU as their trainer!)
- How to captivate them within the first five minutes … (HINT: have a “less than amazing opener” and their excitement and enthusiasm will suffer.)
- How to use proven techniques to generate MORE credibility and MORE rapport and get them in the palm of your hand by the first break…
- Which questions and techniques you should be engaging them on a lesson-to-lesson basis so their minds never wander…
- “Attention CPR”…How to help them follow along and make sure they stay on track and get them listening and participating again!
- The “lightbulbs” concept attainment strategy (and why applying these 5 simple steps will practically ensure they “get it” – even for the most challenging concepts.)
- Using Non-Verbals: 6 body language and tone of voice techniques to get you’re your trainees to listen, learn, follow, understand and apply what you say.
- FOUR Q&A steps that actually work and ensure you’re only the perfect questions! (This is how to answer any question, even if you haven’t got an answer)
- The two most important things to do with ANY challenging trainee to minimize distractions (Get this wrong the negative, inattentive and apathetic employees will take control)
- Amazing Ending: The perfect way to end the class and show it was worthwhile to move them to respond with enthusiasm and apply what they learned to the real world.
- Benchmark Assessing: How to ensure each learner has mastered key objectives (so you always know who’s ready to move forward even after class is done).
- The 9 sneaky tricks that triple your classroom fun and enjoyment (and when to use them)
- Lesson Plan Creation: The exact steps to prepare and practice your own irresistible training that you can be certain they will crave everything you have to teach.
- 3 must-use tools to organize your material deliverability (and visuals that make sure complex ideas are clearer and more memorable)
- …and much, MUCH more!
In short, Certified Classroom Training Specialists (a.k.a. “Training Masters”) are able to effectively motivate any trainees, while simultaneously increasing engagement and retention in less time.
If you’re interested in becoming such a “Training Master,” then I have one question for you…
Are You A “Doer”…or Just a “Talker?”
(or…Why You Might Want To Get Certified)
Let’s face it: Training Experts are a dime a dozen.
So how do you separate those who “walk the talk” from the ones who merely…
…talk?
And at Rule the Room, it was our problem, too. You see, we don’t just teach training best practices, we actually DO TRAINING for businesses that we ACTUALLY OWN, CONSULT, or WORK FOR.
We aren’t researchers. We aren’t journalists.
We’re business owners training employees (and training trainers to train employees) to achieve their full potential at work, convert belief into practice, and make retaining our employees a priority.
In other words: WE ACTUALLY DO THIS STUFF…
…so we know how hard it is to find truly skilled trainers who know what they’re talking about.
And that’s why we created the “Classroom Training Mastery” course and certification.
We built this certification to train our own trainers, but in the spirit of “open sourcing” our business (which is what Rule the Room is all about) we’re now making this certification and training available to the world.
In short, we’re making it available to YOU…

About Your Instructor
Jason Teteak is the Founder and CEO of Rule the Room Train the Trainer. Jason first made a reputation in the medical training industry, where he was known as “the Epic trainer of trainers.” In response to many requests, he began to offer personalized services and quickly developed a following as a private training coach and training consultant whose clientele includes elite institutions, universities, and top corporations.
In 20 years of working as a trainer and a trainer coach, he has helped more than 15,000 training professionals to “Rule the Room” and has appeared before more than 200,000 people. He’s won praise and a wide following for his original methods, his engaging style, and his knack for transferring training skills via practical, simple, universal and immediately actionable techniques.

Rule the Room Train the Trainer is Different
Sure, you can probably find other “train-the-trainer” trainings and certifications that cover similar topics, but a Rule the Room certification is unique because it’s built and taught by real trainers who actually write and train their own classes and observe, coach and train thousands of trainers to mastery.
In other words, we aren’t “researchers” sharing “theoretical fluff”. We’re in-the-trenches trainers who despise untested theory and believe that the best way to learn training techniques is to actually get up and teach in front of a real classroom. If that sounds like something that fits you, then welcome! You’re in the right place.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: “How will this Rule the Room certification help me?”
A: It depends on who you are…..
If you’re a business owner, this certification is a great way to learn classroom training yourself. It’s also a great way to train and certify members of your own team and get them up to speed in half the time on the latest classroom training trends and best practices.
If you’re a consultant, this certification is a practical way to show that you are a Classroom Training Specialist, which could help you attract better, higher-paying clients, boost their ROI and efficiency, and lower turnover, safety and security concerns.
If you’re a student, this certificate can set you apart from other graduates who may have a business or education degree, but don’t have the specialized skills that employers today are looking for.
If you’re an employee or training professional, this certificate can make you more valuable to your company, which can get you that raise or promotion you may deserve (but don’t have a reason to request).
Q: “How valuable is this Rule the Room certification?”
A: The certification itself is highly valuable if your goal is to set yourself apart from the competition. What’s even MORE valuable than any certification is the knowledge and understanding you’re going to gain when you take this class and pass all the tests. You will know classroom training.
Q: “Can I retake the test if I fail?”
A: Sure, you can retest twice (for a total of 3 attempts). If you fail the test three times, you’ll need to retake the class (it’s free to do so) along with all of the core module quizzes before you take the test again.
Q: “When do I have to finish the class?”
A: You can go at whatever pace suits you best! You’ve got a lot of other things going on in your life, so just because you enroll in the workshop doesn’t mean you need to complete it right away. In fact, you can start and finish the workshop whenever you want. Either way, we’re going to be there with you every step of the way to ensure you’re successful and can get certified.
Q: “How soon can I finish the class and/or get certified?”
A: The Classroom Training Mastery class is 16 hours of video training, so if you are dedicating yourself full time to it, you could probably finish in 3 days, but we don’t recommend that. Instead, we recommend you take 7 – 14 days (if you can give your full attention to the material. If you only have a little bit of time each day, then you should dedicated 4 – 6 weeks to finish it up and take the test.
Q: “How certain can I be that I will be certified?”
A: It’s never a guarantee. If it was, then our certification wouldn’t mean anything. Instead, it does mean something, and because of that, you’re going to have to work at this thing to get certified. When you do get certified, you can be certain that it will actually mean something. The class and the test are both going to challenge you, but rest assured we make everything simple, easy to understand, and quick to learn. With that said, you will have to earn your certification.
Q: “Can I just sit in on the class to take my classroom training to another level? I.e. Do I have to get certified?”
A: Right now the cost for the class is $297. Ordinarily the site fee for the certification exam is $497, but currently we have waived that fee and are allowing students to take the exam up to 3 times for free. This will change in the future, at which time we may allow non-certification candidates into our classes at a discounted rate, but the price will never be lower than $297.
Q: How hard is the test?
A: You can liken our tests to the story of “goldilocks and the three bears” – not too hot and not too cold. In other words, they’re hard enough that you need to study and know your stuff, but we don’t make them intentionally hard just to be difficult. We make them as hard as they need to be to make sure you know how to “Rule the Room”. We believe learning doesn’t happen until a behavior change occurs, so to preserve the integrity of this certification, we have made the test challenging and the questions specific to our proprietary Rule the Room Train the Trainer techniques, methodologies and recipes. Don’t expect to pass the test just because you have taken other trainings or certification courses in the past. This training is different, and the exams will reflect those differences.
Q: Do you offer grants or financial aid for your programs?
A: At this time, no grants or financial aid programs are available. The good news is that we have priced all our workshops and trainings so that they are affordable to everyone, especially compared to similar train-the-trainer programs and workshops.
