This pack explains all sorts of things to do with training – from being in a group to going to meetings to doing training and what you need to think about. This pack has easy words and pictures. There are 16-modules and a word bank of useful terms. Each module follows the same format and has the same set of headings. There is also a video cassette showing different kinds of training and an audio cassette for people who cannot read or are blind or visually impaired.
