Peer-to-Peer Training Facilitator's Guide

The peer-to-peer P2P training approach involves small groups of people from similar social groupings, who are not professional teachers, helping each other to learn. The P2P approach has great potential for rapidly identifying emerging lessons learned and integrating these into wide-reaching Army training. However, to ensure that the potential of P2P training is realized, the Army needs to identify the instructional principles and best practices supporting effective P2P training and incorporate these into a Soldier-friendly facilitators guide. The present research resulted in the development of a P2P Training Facilitators Guide which incorporates best practices in P2P training from academia, industry, and the military. As part of the research process, the guide was reviewed during formative evaluation and revised. This report contains a brief overview of the project and the complete P2P Training Facilitators Guide.
