Handbook Organization and Ideas
I'm working on creating a handbook directed at community agencies about how to establish a partnership with the college and what options they have, etc.
I've been told not to try to reinvent the wheel so I've found a few handbook examples and with their help I've been able to take ideas and create a pretty decent outline of the handbook thus far. Even though it doesn't look too shabby right now I was wonder if any of you had any handbook resources available to you that could look into? I'm always up for seeing how other organized their handbook, and what topics they have because I'm sure I probably missed some!
I'd really appreciate anything you could send my way.

handbook thoughts
I'm working on more of a training manual than a handbook, but I've found that the most crucial thing is to be ultra organized. Have a table of contents and an index so that it's easy for the readers to find exactly what they're looking for. Also, try to refrain from using too much jargon, and should you need to, just make sure it's clearly defined. Nothing is a bigger turn off to a potential participant than the lost feeling that comes from a failure to communicate.
