Creating a train-the-trainer lesson plan in 7 minutes

In today's blog post, I share a short video of exactly how I used Soapbox (an online tool) to create a train the trainer lesson plan in minutes.

Last week I wrote a bit about Soapbox, which is an online tool that can be used to create training and skill-building lesson plans in just a few minutes. Today, I’m going to show exactly what it looks like to create a lesson plan in just a few minutes (and later in this post, you can download a digital copy of the final lesson plan).

First, here is a video that will walk you through how I developed a complete lesson outline for this train-the-trainer session in under 7 minutes.

Outside of what you see in the video, I spent about 15 or 20 additional minutes working through the specific talking points and content for each activity. Below is a screen shot of a portion of the final lesson plan (which was also generating instantly via Soapbox) and you can download a copy of the train the trainer lesson plan.
