You've got the (guide) goods. One key component of any workshop is the curriculum guide! All workshops must include a copy of the training curriculum for each participant. Workshop participants love to take home these hard-copy resources to use over and over again in their settings. Remember, workshop participants are paying for the professional development which includes the guide(s). They aren't buying the guides and facilitators aren't selling the guides.
Place your order for guides at our new online Facilitator Store! Use the password Facilitators24 to access the store. You can pay for guides at checkout or select offline payment and be emailed an invoice. Please allow a minimum of 3 weeks in order to ensure adequate time for receiving your guides. Guide order questions can be directed to michelle@kaee.orgÂ
Tips for Organizing Activity Materials & Supplies
Assemble a basic workshop materials kit to include supplies you most commonly used.
Review materials lists carefully when selecting activities for your agenda to ensure that your workshop's materials needs will match your budget and time frame.
Remember that workshop participants are most likely to use the activities they have experienced as part of a workshop, and classroom budgets are tight! Consider what materials may be readily available and/or easily accessible for your participants when selecting activities.
Plan ahead for special orders to avoid extra shipping costs and pre-workshop anxiety.
Remember to reduce, reuse and recycle activity materials as much as possible. Sometimes you will need to purchase activity supplies on a budget, or include an activity that requires a lot of materials, but try to model conservation practices whenever possible. Creating unnecessary waste or over-consuming natural resources in demonstrating a conservation or environmental education activity could diminish your credibility. Educators notice when you're not walking your talk, and their students will too!
