Training pet parrots has benefits that extend well beyond the entertainment value of a parrot that can talk and do tricks. Training will strengthen the bond you have with your parrot, who will look forward to the one-on-one attention involved in training sessions, especially when success means lots of praise and attention along with favorite treats. In addition, teaching some simple commands will make handling your parrot easier.

Always remeber these 3 points :-
1. Parrot does something good --> give a reward
2. Parrot does something undesirable --> ignore it
3. Never punish your parrot
Make the training area safe and secure. Close and cover all windows, and try to make the room bright and cheerful without making it overly stimulating. A quiet room, away from his/her cage is also very important.
Communicate to your parrot that these training sessions are fun! Talk to him/her and even offer (very) small treats. Generally, treats are used as reward for behavior, but especially with an apprehensive bird, a little food can go a long way in convincing your pet that this is fun.
NOTE:
* Train only when you are relaxed. Positive training does take patience!
* Pick a time when your bird is attentive and not distracted by eating, preening, or household activity.
* Frequent, but short, training sessions are generally more effective. A few minutes at a time, several times a day, works well.
* Pick a favorite reward (but don't overdo it if it is food).
* Once your bird catches on to something, don't give a treat every time (switch to praise part of the time) or your bird may only do the behavior if he/she knows you have a treat handy.
* End each session on a positive note. Wait for a successful attempt or at least a good try at whatever you are training, give a treat, and move on to something else.
* Keep training sessions upbeat and fun for your bird.
While maintaining a calm and happy voice, slowly move your finger towards your bird. Gently press your finger against the lower stomach and say, "Step up." Most birds will step up instinctively when something is against their belly, so learning this skill usually takes just a few training sessions.
Practice every day, and try to practice at the same time (or as part of the same routine) every day. This helps your parrot anticipate your special time together and will also help him/her remember more from day to day.
