Renting a training room: how do you choose the right one?
Are you planning to organize a training course? The choice of the room is very important, because the working environment contributes to the smooth running of a training course. So, before renting space for your work meetings and training, it is necessary to ask yourself the right questions. For example: What configuration do I need? What equipment and services will be required? What is the size of my room?
Formeret gives you its advice to find the ideal place for your training so that the working conditions are optimal for the participants.
Training room rental: what criteria should you take into account?
To guarantee the success of a training course, apprenticeship must take place under optimal conditions. The setting, the size of the room, its layout, the necessary equipment, etc., are all criteria that must be analyzed in order to choose the right meeting room and organize effective training.
What type of training do you conduct?
The first question to ask yourself is what type of training you want to organize, as training sessions do not always take place in a conventional manner. Indeed, today there are numerous learning experiences that emphasize the interactivity and action of everyone, such as blended learning for example. Innovative approaches to training include hackathons, serious games, learning expeditions, etc. For this type of collaborative professional events, where creativity and conviviality are essential, it is preferable to turn to atypical spaces.
The size of the meeting room
La reception capacity of your seminar or training rooms is also one of the first criteria to take into account. The needs in terms of room size vary according to the type of event and the number of participants, of course. It is generally recommended to provide a space of 2 m² on average for each participant. The ideal is to offer a room large enough for the sessions to be comfortable, without being too spacious. Indeed, doing a training course in a room that is too large can also be counterproductive since your employees must be close enough to guarantee a friendly atmosphere and good communication.
The atmosphere of the room
The work environment is one of the essential components for the success of your training courses. While some training courses can very well take place in a traditional meeting room, others will need a more atypical and friendly setting. The ideal framework will therefore be the one that will be most suited to your type of training and to the profile of your participants. They will spend a lot of time there and, as we know today, the well-being of employees is synonymous with productivity and creativity.
Depending on the experience you want to offer to participants, you can therefore opt for a classic seminar or meeting room, the atmosphere will certainly be professional, or an atypical place for a more relaxed atmosphere. Formeret offers you a set of unusual places for your training. In any case, the decorative elements, the colors, the comfort of the furniture, the natural light, are all details that will have an impact on theworking environment for the participants.
The necessary equipment
For your study day to take place in the best conditions, the room for rent must be equipped with all the necessary equipment. At a minimum, it must offer basic equipment such as a screen, a video projector, computers, a high-speed Internet connection, WiFi access, a whiteboard, etc.
The Formeret group provides you with training rooms equipped with high-performance audiovisual equipment (touch screens and video projectors, etc.). In the largest rooms, you also have reminder screens to provide additional comfort for all participants. It is also possible to rent equipment on site according to your needs: computer, microphones or cameras for your videoconferences, paper-board, etc.
The format of the training rooms
Ideally, the room should provide enough space to work, move, and interact with group members. For a training, the fU format is generally recommended because it combines the efficiency of a classroom format with the conviviality of a circular shape. In particular, this arrangement facilitates collaboration and allows the trainer to circulate and interact easily with everyone.
However, the ideal is still to have access to a modular room. The modularity of a location is an important criterion in order to be able to adapt to different training formats. If you need change configuration from one day to the next to be able to carry out workshops, for example, check that this is possible. Your training room should be able to be arranged according to your needs.
Location and accessibility
The geographical location of your training room is also a criterion to take into account. All participants should be able to get there without difficulty. So remember to check that the room is well served by public transport or that it is possible to park nearby. In the heart of 2E and 9E boroughs, our training rooms in Paris are easily accessible. Finally, consider accessibility for people with reduced mobility if necessary.
Break areas and ancillary services
The aim of a training course is of course to acquire new knowledge and skills. But we must not overlook the cosiness of the participants and it is therefore important to think about relaxation areas And to catering services. This is even more important if it is a training course lasting several days. Make sure there is a cozy space, for coffee breaks for example, and the catering services offered before renting a space (caterers, meal trays, breakfasts and pastries, etc.).
In addition, depending on your needs, it may be interesting to check the presence of ancillary services, for example: luggage storage, copying, accommodation for long-term training, assistance in case of technical problems, etc.
