A short speaker segment advising course creators to select organizations to apply to based on their goals (local vs. nationwide), pick an approved topic from the organization’s list, and follow that organization’s detailed guidelines (length, breaks, etc.) when building training courses. The speaker warns that bringing a finished training often requires difficult rework to meet organizational requirements.

What I suggest instead is you choose which organization you want to apply to based on your goals. Do you just want to do a couple little trainings in your state? Do you want to go nationwide? You know what are your goals? And then choose a topic from their list. So you're already choosing a topic that's allowed, and then you're following their guidelines to build your course. They have guidelines about how long it needs to be, whether or not you can include breaks. Even you know how long you have to go before you can include a break. They really dictate a lot. So if you come in with a training already done, we're going to have to dismantle it and try to reverse engineer it, and it is just so much harder.
