INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Use kitchen shears to trim off the dry tip from each stem of cilantro. Take this time to also remove any damaged or dying leaves, as well. To keep the end fresher and cause less shock to the plant, trim the stems under cool, running water. Place the cilantro in a dish and cover the stems with cool water. Let them soak for five to ten minutes. Soaking the cilantro removes all dirt and debris from the leaves. Since the leaves and stems will be moist when you use this method, cleaning the leaves beforehand is not an issue. If you were using a method that required the leaves to remain dry, however, you would wait until you were ready to use the herb before cleaning it. Transfer the wrapped cilantro to a plastic bag or plastic container with an airtight seal. Close the container and label it with the current date and contents. If placing the cilantro in a plastic bag, close the top seal, leaving only 1 inch (2.5 cm) of open space. Gently squeeze out all the air before you finish sealing the bag. If placing the cilantro into an airtight container, make sure that the lid snaps on securely and leaves no space for air to slip in or out. Store the container of cilantro in your refrigerator for a week or so. Cilantro is a fairly delicate herb. As such, using this method to store fresh cilantro may not be as effective as other methods. While a damp paper towel and plastic bag work well for hardier herbs, like mint and parsley, cilantro wilts faster. According to the experiences of many home cooks, methods that allow the leaves to remain dry can actually prolong the freshness of the herb longer. Note, however, that this method is very effective if you only want to keep the cilantro fresh for five days or so. The combination of moisture and cool temperatures can keep the cilantro at optimum freshness and crispness for a few days, but if you need to keep it fresh for a longer period of time, you would be better off with another method.

SUMMARY: Trim the ends. Soak the cilantro. Place the cilantro in an airtight container. Keep in the refrigerator.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The phrase molte grazie (MOHL-teh GRAHT-see-eh) literally means "many thanks." If you want to go a step beyond the basic grazie, this is a good phrase to use. For example, if you have a special request that someone goes out of their way to fulfill, you might say molte grazie. It's a little stronger than a simple grazie and implies that you understand and appreciate what the person has done for you. Grazie mille (GRAHT-see-eh MEEL-leh) literally means "a thousand thanks," but it's typically used to mean something more like "thanks a lot." The mille can go before or after the grazie without changing the meaning. For example, you might say "grazie mille per il Suo aiuto," which means "thanks a lot for your help." In English, "million" is used more often than "thousand" in this context. You can think of this phrase as similar to saying "a million thanks" or "thanks a million." Grazie tante (GRAHT-see-eh TAHN-teh) is another Italian phrase that essentially means "thanks a lot." The word tante means "many," so the phrase literally means "many thanks." Like grazie mille, you can place the word tante either before or after the word grazie without changing the meaning. The phrase grazie di tutto (GRAHT-see-eh dee TOO-toh) means "thanks for everything." It's generally more appropriate to use if someone has helped you more than once, or if they've helped you in several different ways. For example, if you were staying in a hotel in Rome and the hotel proprietor gave you directions several different times, as well as advice on the best restaurants and the best time of day to visit local attractions, it would be appropriate to say grazie di tutto as you were checking out of the hotel. The word grazie comes from the verb ringraziare, which means "to thank." You can also use this verb to thank someone. However, if you do, be sure to use formal pronouns to address anyone who is older or in a position of authority. If you're speaking to someone your age or younger, or someone you have a close relationship with, you could say ti ringrazio (tee rreen-GRAHT-see-oh), which is the informal way of saying "I thank you." If the person you're thanking is older than you, an adult stranger, or someone in a position of authority, use la ringrazio (lah rreen-GRAHT-see-oh). If you're addressing your thanks to more than one person, say vi ringrazio (vee rreen-GRAHT-see-oh).

SUMMARY: Give many thanks by saying molte grazie. Offer a thousand thanks with grazie mille or mille grazie. Say grazie tante to express deep gratitude. Try grazie di tutto if you're thanking someone for multiple things. Switch to formal pronouns when speaking to people older than you.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The educational and qualification requirements to become a corporate trainer are not completely clear-cut and there are a variety of ways into the field. In most cases you will be expected to have attained a bachelor's degree in a relevant subject. Trainers are generally Human Resources specialists, so many will have a degree in Human Resources or something similar, but many employers will not specify a single required major. You should focus your education on the area in which you wish to work. For example, if you want to be a corporate trainer in finance, having qualifications that prove your expertise is a good idea. If possible, try to include some education in human resources management in your studies. If some instances employers will look for a master's degree for higher level corporate trainers. If in doubt, look up some job adverts in corporate training and look at the required qualifications. There are ways into a career as a corporate trainer that do not necessarily require you to study for a degree. For many employers first hand professional experience is just as important, if not more so, than qualifications. If you would prefer to be working right away consider trying to get work as a training assistant or human resources assistant. These positions are less likely to require a degree and will give you invaluable experience. It is not uncommon for trainers to begin as assistants in human resources and develop skills on the job. Working your way up will help you understand corporate processes and policies before taking on the role of instructing and supervising others. Communication is the central element to successful corporate training so it's crucial that you really target this as an area to improve before you try to enter the job market. Trainers will spend a lot of time talking to large groups and need to be engaging and clear in how they do this. There are a number of ways for you to work on this, and you should look for opportunities to develop all the time. Try taking a public speaking course or joining a group that specialises in practising and improving public speaking. Search your local colleges and training centres for courses on public speaking, communications, and other speaking and presentation related skills. An alternative career path for corporate trainers involves transitioning from teaching to training. Teachers have excellent experience of imparting information clearly and concisely to large groups and these transferable skills can be very valuable for a career as a corporate trainer. It is not always easy to make the transition, but having specific skills and knowledge of the business area you wish to work in will make a big difference. Teachers used to a classroom full of teenagers may find the idea of training motivated adults appealing. The more mature audiences in corporate training will bring in their own experiences and expectations which can be challenging for someone used to teaching children.

SUMMARY:
Take a relevant bachelor's degree. Learn on the job. Improve your communication skills. Move into training from teaching.
