How to Use the Curriculum

These tips regarding organization and format will make your use of the modules easier.

Organization of the Material

The curriculum is presented as nine logical sessions, along with introductory and other materials. The PowerPoint presentations can be used as is, or can be modified to suit your presentation. You may use these slides in any order, or copy the slides for use in new presentations. You may copy any of these files to your local hard drive.

Please note some of the PowerPoint presentations may start or end with a blank slide. This is intentional, so that presenters don't inadvertently start a new module.
