About the Teachers' Training Manuals ...
IHA is pleased to offer Teacher’s Training Manuals for use with each of the books in our "What To Do For Health" book series. The training manuals are designed to help you teach book recipients how to most effectively use the books. The primary means of teaching is in a classroom setting, in a 1.5- to 2-hour class. However, the manuals also provide information on how to effectively distribute the books via an in-home visit, office visit, or through the mail.
