About the Guidebook Design Template Wizard

Use it to Add a Course Outline into a New Facilitator Guide or Participant Guide

 

SAVE your new guidebook

You will see the Guidebook Design Template wizard after saving a new LeaderGuide Pro facilitator guide or participant guide

Guidebook Design Template_Single Objective 90-120

You will use this wizard to add a course outline into your new guidebook

Outlines are built with Modules (topics) and Lessons (subtopics) and also include Module goals and Lesson times

Every Module must be followed by at least one Lesson

📍TIP: When in doubt - use one of the include outlines 

Because, once you are in your new guidebook, you will be able to make changes to the initial outline you choose here

LeaderGuide Pro makes it easy to edit Module and Lesson names, add new Modules and Lessons, and reorder or remove Modules and Lessons 

There are four key sections of this wizard
