The Hidden Secret to Effective Training: Better Handouts In this on-demand session you’ll discover the hidden secret to effective training, and how to transform your training materials. What’s the difference between most training manuals and a phone book? Phone books can often be shorter and more interesting. With a little creativity in the way you design and insert content into your training materials (manuals, handouts, participant guides, etc), your entire presentation – from slide deck to delivery to activities – can be transformed. Watch this webinar to learn: How to decide which type of handout is best for your training How to design training materials that help participants engage with the content (and with each other) How to eliminate 5 common mistakes many trainers make when designing handouts and guides About Our Speaker: Brian Washburn, Endurance Learning Brian Washburn has been designing and delivering learning programs for 19 years, getting his start as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Paraguay, where he helped train farmers on basic principles of business.
