How to Use Handouts

Well-made handouts help in many valuable purposes in a training program but only if they are well made and used correctly. Here is a complete guide on how to use helpful handouts correctly and how to use them in the most effective way during training:

Make your handouts look proficient by using excellent quality paper and a good laser printer or high-quality photocopier. If you have the budget, you can even use full-colored handouts for more efficiency.

Leave enough white space on the handouts by keeping information simple, direct, and neat. Also, give trainees the room to make some notes.

 

 

Use large fonts that are easy to read and do not mingle the fonts. Also, use bullets and boundaries to arrange information and to make points easy to track. Use headlines for significant subjects and topics.

Use visuals wherever possible to demonstrate the essential points. Use various colored papers for handouts on diverse topics. Also, number the handouts for easy references, while going through them with the trainees.

Wait till the end of the training program to pass out handouts that you will not disclose in the class to avoid disturbing trainees during the training session.
