Must-Have Primer for Designers and Trainers!

If you're a beginner in the field of instructional design or training, McCain's book is a must-have and a quick-read that you will turn to again. It cuts to the chase with step-by-step instructions that take a training newbie through the essential phases of designing a training course: Design, Development, and Delivery, including checklists for each phase. I found the section on facilitation skills for trainers especially helpful. The book is short, concisely worded, and practical--just the ticket if you're new to the field.
