This book is a great reference material to have on hand when you need an idea for an outline.

This book gives good information for beginners who want to improve their instructional design skills.

I was disappointed in the content, because it is entry level, and I needed advanced instruction.

The book is not 200 pages. It is much smaller, with only 118 pages. I would place a value of $15 on this $39 book.

This book is great if you are looking for information about formatting your training documents in terms of bold, lines, boxes, etc. But it does not have any information about training document flow to help you put the information together in a logical format.

I bought this with high hopes that it would have inspirational page layouts. I often create templates for training materials, and use these types of materials for reference. In this case, I wish I could return it. This was written with early word processors in mind, I think, uses mostly cliche’d layouts, and it’s all black and white.

I would refer people considering this book to purchase Robin Williams’ Design Workshop, or Design for non-designers, instead. Those two are way more worth the money than this one.

The materials were good ideas if you have no experience in training or educating people. If a person has any experience at all, it would be better to find a text that gives more, and also comes with a CD so you can implement the ideas easily and quickly.
