Testimonials
| This is the only guide like it that I know
of on the market. It has a logical format, clear instructions, and lots of
practical examples. I think Forecasting Training Tempests sections
throughout are some of the best pearls of wisdom I've ever encountered.
Highly recommended. |

| Finally! A foundation book for those of us
so caught up in the technology of training delivery that we've overlooked
the basics of how to develop good training. I've seen the author in
action, and I know that this book is not just a theory. She has written
this book from her own experience and success in developing good training. |
