The document outlines the schedule and content for a refactoring tutorial. It includes sessions on why and when to refactor, refactoring to patterns, dealing with legacy code, and a hands-on refactoring session. It also lists three golden rules of refactoring - the DRY principle, expressing intent, and telling rather than asking. Finally, it notes that some terms will be used loosely in the tutorial.
