The activities are formatted for easy use with clearly marked objectives, best occasion to use them, group size, estimated time equipment and supplies needed and materials. Many of the activities have ready-to-use handouts.

Given a good design, how can a trainer ensure the maximum learning for everyone involved? According to Lois Hart, during any training course there are five key points of contact between trainer and participant that repay particular attention. They are:- before the course- at the beginning of the course- transitions within the course- at the end of the course- after the course.These five 'connections' provide the framework for this remarkable training resource. Step-by-step procedures for running each of the 125 activities and guidance on when to use them are also provided. Each activity is carefully structured, with clear objectives, indications of suitable group size, estimated duration, materials and equipment needed, and room set-up. Many of them include ready-to-copy handouts and creative variations. There are projects, questionnaires, discussions, games, role plays and other formats. The activities, based on the principles of accelerated learning, have been validated in various settings, including training programmes, conferences, classes and team meetings.Connections will provide powerful support for any trainer seeking to strengthen the impact of his or her programme.
