Re-designing Training
Begin to re-design your training by creating a list of MUST-HAVES:
Examples can include: interactive training sessions, limit to session length (30
mins
), handouts, rotating sessions to keep students moving, shorter days, increased group interaction, shorter training length.
Begin to work out your schedule.
Rotating small group sessions keep groups small, and get more presentations into the schedule.
Try the option of a resource fair for those offices not directly related to the students job responsibilities
Allow enough time between sessions/travel
