Instructor's Guide

The Instructors' Guide is designed to assist the health educator (or other training team members) in preparing the training sessions. It contains activities to guide the participants' learning and monitor their progress. Included in this manual are engaging strategies that can be used to individualize learning, as well as, a toolkit to facilitate program/ training planning.

The manual begins with a comprehensive listing of the various skills necessary for anyone providing the training, the types of individuals who make up the training team, and key instructional resources that can be accessed at any time.

The next several sections of the manual offer supplementary topics that can be used as a useful reference for the current training materials. These sections are designed to provide quick familiarity with several health concepts and models that may be new pieces of information or add to what you already know about these areas.

The remainder of the manual consists of the actual sessions utilized during the training. The activities within the sessions are designed to provide hands-on demonstrations to expand the knowledge and skills of the program participants. They allow the participants to see the key concepts and applications first-hand, and how they can be used within their clinic.
