[Year 12 SofDev] training methods vs training strategy question

[Frank Van Den Boom]

If the goal was to train all the staff in that area, then it is one
method. Strategy vs method - I find the words tend to be used
interchangeably in our subjects, which doesn't help.

Subject: [Year 12 SofDev] training methods vs training strategy question

A student is trying to get me on a technicality but he may have a point!
I was hoping for some opinions on this.
 
I asked student to outline two appropriate training methods on a
particular case study. One of my students proposed to train one person,
then go back and train the other staff in small groups.
 
I suggested that this is only one training method - train-the-trainer
but he suggests that it is actually two ways of training people. He
suggested that maybe the wording on the question should have stated
"propose two training strategies" rather than "methods".
 
What do you think?
