Great thread! I have been shocked with how little experience some have on becoming trainers. However someone said to me once that the trainer only needs to know how to guide students though a course - they give out handouts, give a little demonstration and the rest is 'self guided study' - why do they need to have x,y or z. However I like trainers who have had experience, whom keep gathering information and know real life scenarios. When looking for a CPD course in the past I have asked them what they think of so and so, or the differences between machines and this has usually made my mind up as well as calling my insurance company to see if they are accreditated!
