Personal Delivery of Training
Personal delivery — instructor-led training — means a trainer teaches learners directly, in a classroom or alongside them on the job. Its great strength is human interaction and immediate feedback.

- What are its limitations?
What it is
In personal delivery, a knowledgeable instructor presents material, demonstrates skills, answers questions, and guides practice in real time. It can be one-to-one or with a group.
Advantages
A live instructor can read the room, adapt the pace and examples to the learners, answer questions on the spot, demonstrate hands-on skills, and motivate the group. This interaction makes it well suited to complex or practical subjects.
Limitations
Personal delivery is harder to scale and more expensive per learner. It requires scheduling people in the same place and time, and the quality can vary from one instructor to another. For large audiences or simple knowledge, other methods may be more efficient.
Summary
Personal, instructor-led delivery offers rich interaction, adaptability, and immediate feedback, making it ideal for complex or hands-on skills and smaller groups. Its trade-offs are higher cost, scheduling demands, and limited scalability compared with online methods.
