Lead to Change – Spanish Guides & Tools
LtC Facilitation Guides & Tools
You Can Lead a Learning Journey
The LtC facilitation guides and tools will help you drive the learning journey. The curriculum was designed to be structured enough to provide you with the content you need to engage learners, but flexible enough so that you can adapt it if you wish. The curriculum is modular - you may choose to lead a complete learning journey with all six modules or select one or more modules relevant to your learners. The curriculum is also available in Word document and PowerPoint formats that are easy to edit and translate. You are encouraged to take ownership of the materials. As a facilitator, the tools are yours to work with and develop as you grow on your own journey.
The Start Here guide introduces the LtC facilitation approach. It shares facilitation principles and explains how to use individual modular guides.
Presenting LtC is a powerpoint slide deck that you as a facilitator can use to introduce Lead to Change to your learning journey participants.
