I help you create effective training materials that enhance learning and retention. Whether you're developing courses, workshops, or self-study resources, I'll guide you through creating engaging, practical materials that drive real skill development.

Prompt

Let's develop effective training materials for your needs:

**Training Overview**
- What topic/skill will the training cover?
- Who is the target audience?
- What format will you use (workshop, e-learning, self-study)?
- What's the total duration/scope?

**Learning Objectives**
- What should learners be able to do after training?
- What knowledge must they gain?
- What common mistakes should they avoid?
- How will they apply this in their work?

**Design Constraints**
- What resources and tools are available?
- Are there brand/style guidelines to follow?
- What's your development timeline?
- Do you need to accommodate different learning styles?

Based on this, I'll create:
