A Facilitator Guide ensures consistency across training sessions by including step-by-step instructions for facilitators.  The guide is important because it provides facilitators with a roadmap of their training session keeping their program on track in terms of the session’s agenda, learning material, and pacing.

The guide might include the following sections:

Section I. Facilitator notes

• Goals of the training
• Key understandings
• Session objectives
• Evidence of learning (participants are able to show the following skills by the end of the training)
• Timing (duriation of morning and afternoon sessions)
• Target audience
• Pre-requisite (knowledge level, reading materials, etc.)
• Session materials

II. Facilitator checklist

• Two weeks prior to training: finalize attendee list, location and room arrangement.
• One week prior to training: confirm logistics, technical equipment, send materials to attendees, create assignments.
• Day of the training: sign-sheet, pensm flipcharts, papers, handouts. 
• After sessions: feedback from attendees, submit documentations.
• One week after the training: send follow up questions and training materials to attendees.
