Ray,

I would focus on the rules that are the most misunderstood.
Maybe even do a pre-quiz to get them thinking about rules

I would think

3 seconds
Back court
Block Charge
Backboard rules
Team control fouls
Screening

Anyhting else that is perpetuated in rule myth out there

From someone who has been a trainer in non-officiating side,

I would set up the learning objectives.

What should they be able to recite?
What should they be able to demonstrate?
What do you wnat them to be competent in?
knowing that you have 90 minutes
Once you have that then model it around that.
Dont try to do too much pick the 3-4 most critical skills

Knowing church officials

A couple of on floor suggestions
-blowing the whistle with authority
-basic positions
-basic table reporting
-switiching
-maybe on ball/off ball

Dont overwhelm them its better to get them good at 2 things than do the whirlwind tour of officiating that they will forget 80 percent in 48 hours.

Have them practice, be reptitive..

In the army we have what is called task, condition, and standard and we are supposed to train to that. Pick the task you want them to be good at and have them train until they meet the standard.This will be ingrained, ....

Follow up with other stuff later.

The best traiing programs are those that reinforce over time
