Project: Ideas for Training Session

Since several people have already made great posts about the actual content for the orientation, I won't make this one redundant and will focus on more action-oriented aspects of the session instead.

1. Show a video to break up the monotony of discussion and provide another form of stimulation

2. Break into groups and allow them to complete a small task related to a consulting session or actually doing commentary

3. Only have 1 handout (even if the information has to be bound) so they are less likely to lose what we give them and can do "one-stop shopping" when referencing the ideas we discussed

4. This should be a more general session since it's the introduction. I think it's best to lay a broad foundation and then just pick maybe 2 areas of the things we introduced to focus on for later sessions, that way they still get a lot of information but aren't overwhelmed by too many details.
