I have been given the task of dividing an existing office into two rooms with the purpose of one being a designated training room. Does anybody know of if there is any specific ruling for training rooms with regards to availabilit of natural light, temp control, seating arrangements etc.

As part of my work I do in-house training for many different clients. Facilities vary widely from purpose designed training centres to rooms with no natural light - to sometimes the factory canteen! My major concerns are ventilation, temperature and overcrowding. Provided these are OK then I don't think there are any special requirements, or at least if there are they are widely ignored and have never cropped up, or been mentioned by the visiting HSE inspector.
Re temperature remember that laptop projectors, which is what are most widely used today, give off considerable heat. I had one occasion last year where the projector shut down as the temperature in the room was so high!

Are you providing your own courses or buying the courses in?
Chris has covered the majority of points, but also think about the actual type of course to be presented and how many people will be attending.
How much will be theory/practical?
Will there be syndicate exercises where the group needs to split-up or get together?
Is there anyone with mobility problems or (if you are presenting your own courses) specific learning disabilities?
I hope that helps a little bit more.
Phil
