6. Preparing materials for Training • What should be handed out to training attendees? • Powerpoint slides • Examples packets • Blank templates • Attendees should sit with their school teams & I usually hand out all of the materials from the beginning

7. Preparation for Training time

8. Characteristics of Effective Training During the Training • Clear tasks are defined for attendees to complete • Be careful of giving too much content or too many ideas/tasks to complete in one training • Have follow-up trainings & chunk content • Work time is built into training time to work on tasks • Intersperse training content with work time • Offer time for questions, clarification & dialogue

9. Model the Training Content • We wanted to have 2 trainers per session for multiple models of presenting the same or similar material across trainers • Model that personal flair & use of personal examples that is critical for effective trainers • 1 trainer will model how they provide training using training materials • as though you were a PBS team attending the training • 2nd trainer will contrast their style with the same or similar materials • Chunk out training material as they would when training teams • Interactive opportunity for participants to ask questions about training material, trainer style, etc. • Opportunity for participants to plan how they might tailor the training content to their own style
