as a reference resource or for a training course

Explanation:
if you really, really want a rhyme (although it doesn't seem that important a feature of the text to me); you could of course try to lever rhyme or similar device (eg alliteration) in somewhere else nearby to compensate, if you felt so inclined.

'resource' rhymes with 'course'...

'inform and instruct' alliterates, if that's any nearer what you're looking for...

Notes to answerer
