Facilitator's Guide
The Facilitator’s Guide is a core component – it features step-by-step instructions and tips for teaching the 4-hour, self-facilitated Road Trip workshop. Each section lists the learning objectives, materials and components needed, and estimated time to complete.
The slides for each section are duplicated in the book to help you manage transitions and the flow of the session. If you do not have a copy of the Facilitator’s Guide, you can purchase it here.

The Facilitator’s Guide includes tips and suggested modifications if you have more or less time available than the recommended amount. You can find more on the first page of each section.
