Are you good at explaining new job skills to other people? Do you have a skill that others in the workplace need? You could teach others that skill as part of their professional development or job training.

Training can happen on or off the job. The ideas are the same in either case: people who know more about the topic at hand teach the employees what they know. The teachers (or trainers) more often than not come from a company with a training component. This company can be a non-profit that teaches skills, or it can be a large company that teaches someone how to use a product, or just about anything else.

If you’re interested in training as a career, you’ll need a bachelor’s degree, preferably in a field related to what you want to train. You should also get experience in some form of teaching, whether through tutoring or mentoring.
