The learner–centred learning (LCL) model was implemented as a training approach through a 5–day training of trainers (TOT) course in classes, clinics, and supervising office meetings. This study aimed to assess trainees’ reactions to the Saudi Board of Family Medicine Program – Ministry of Health, Eastern Province (SBFM–MOH–EP). A cross–sectional survey was given to 99 trainees in April 2018 using the Kirkpatrick Model–reaction. It comprised the trainees’ reactions to the curriculum, trainers’ performance, training facilities, and areas for improvement Curriculum content, trainers’ performance, and training facilities received a high percentage of positive responses. However, dissatisfaction was high regarding the balance between theoretical and practical learning, session summarising, trainers’ assessment based on EBM, and considering trainees’ agreement before providing feedback. Therefore, preparing the trainers through TOT courses to model their training after the LCL model with effective structured supervision meetings is valuable for promoting better training outcomes
