French term or phrase: formateurs référents
I don't understand why there is reference here to "formateurs référents", what could be a possible translation of this... a couple of examples...
"La formation dispensée par les formateurs référents doit se dérouler sur 3 heures" ... "La partie théorique de la formation des chasseurs doit inclure les mêmes éléments que ceux cités ci-dessus pour le stage des formateurs référents" ... "The theoretical part of hunters’ training must include the same elements as those cited above for the xxx trainers training course"
"Referent trainers" or training staff doesn't sound very nice in English, neither does "appropriate/relevant trainers"... does anyone have any ideas?
Any help on this would be gratefully appreciated!
Thanks, TB

head trainers / instructors


Explanation:
Just another idea, from the fact that I often see "référence" used to mean a benchmark. Perhaps something along the lines of the basic, head, lead trainers.
