Sample Outlines

About the Sample Outlines

The Sample Outlines help you prepare effective family history classes right from The Family History Guide website, without the need for creating separate slide decks. Each Sample Outline

• Is a one-page Word document, about one page long, in two columns
• Covers enough content for about a 60-minute class
• May be modified for your use, subject to the Terms of Use and FAQ pages
• May be used as a handout for classes

Prep and Participation

For tips on instructor preparation and ways to involve learners in your presentations, see the Trainers Corner in the Trainers menu. These tips can be customized for any class you present.

The currently available Sample Outlines are listed below, by Project. Date of last update by The Family History Guide is also noted for each. Additional Sample Outlines are planned for the future.
