With the pace of time, medicines are improved, if a doctor is not maintaining that pace then he won't be called a modem specialist. In the same way a trainer, developing his subject knowledge, has to utilize the same in his practise, to update the latest knowledge and technique.

It will be required to keep in mind to keep this new material ready prior to its presentation and so should inspect before practise. The efficiency to present the modem visuals or hearing aids according as it deserves has to be attained.
   The name of the book from whichever the subject material is being taken, the edition and the name of the author should be kept in memory. For their subject knowledge the participant may require the reference books, hence their names also should be in the memory.
