This section has all the specific information, worksheets and tools needed to design a program. It includes sample invitation letters, worksheets, participation certificates, post program surveys etc. Part 3 – Resources. This section has the resources which you can print off and provide as handouts to participants or resources to set up e.g. an emergency bushfire kit contents; how to use BOM information services.
