What other reps have to say about the
Yearbook Adviser Guide

As we mentioned, this guide was developed last year by Dana Weiss and Megan Phillip who got the investment and involvement of 10 reps from around the country. Here is what some of them had to say after using it for this year.

Regina Murray in Illinois said,

"The verdict is in. My advisers that have used the guidebook and gone onto the website for the curriculum are THRILLED!!! They especially love the teaching materials out on the website. They have said that the lessons are well thought out and that they have gone really smoothly in class. Just yesterday an adviser asked me how to set up image share and I just sent her to the September tab!!!

Thank you so much for this!! I am tickled that I have some advisers using it and seeing its value. I'm actually going to mention pieces of it every other week or so in my yearbook tips. Just to give them a nudge to check something specific out there for use with their students.

If you want to offer this to a broader group of reps and want a testimonial, let me know! "

John Bumgarner in South Carolina said,

"I think the look of the book is fine and it is laid out well. It's very organized. The task lists were very complete.The website was great and the tips were helpful. I will definitely use it again next year."

Wally Malins in Kansas said,

(Change) "Nothing! It made us look good."

Colleen Areneson in Iowa said,

"I absolutely LOVE The guide and website. I will be using the emails next year too. I am not as creative as I would like to be and this makes me look so good!!
I truly truly appreciate you creating this for us!!!!!
Thank you!"

Sheri Scott in California said,

"This tool is fantastic and so much easier to use than our 1-2-3 Curriculum! Love it and am so thankful that you guys are doing this :) "

Jen Massey in Virginia said,

"I was very happy with the guides. The problem is getting my advisers to use them. I tried to reference the guides as often as possible and use the checklist when I visited…"

Janna Thorsen in Oregon said,

"My advisers that I gave the book too loved it and I think most of them used it. I did not do a good job of getting it out in a timely manner, so only those that attended my Adviser workshop received it. I have the rest still in my corner of the dining room still to assemble."
