Train-the-Trainer

For organizations and community governments, the ability to provide in-house professional development and on-boarding training for new hires is vital for sustainability and implementation of trauma-informed care practices.
​
In this training, participants will learn how to effectively facilitate the training and assess the level of understanding of their own training participants. As we provide in-depth training to ensure quality trainers, our approach to this particular training requires participants to first engage in the training as students and then to engage in the training as facilitators, which doubles the total time for each level of training, but creates highly effective trainers.
Customization Possible:
If your organization or community would prefer to engage in a custom event, we have decades of experience in developing and delivering custom curriculum for participants and in service of training facilitators as trainers.
