Train-the-Trainer (TtT) is a framework where subject matter experts are taught how to teach a specific subject effectively so that they can teach others. This turns subject matter experts into effective educators creating a multiplier effect that scales knowledge.
This module provides teaching materials and guidance for teaching light–matter interactions and fluorescence.
The module is aimed at imaging scientists who currently run or plan to run courses on fundamental topics in light microscopy for their imaging communities, with the aim of improving their knowledge of how to organize and deliver effective training programs.
The content presented in this module was developed as part of three Train-the-Trainer courses held in Canada (2023), Argentina (2024), and Australia (2025).
