- Designate one staff member to take all three training
modules
- Once training is completed, have designated staff member
participate in “Solution Sessions,” which are discussions
designed to support application of new knowledge (10 three-hour
sessions over 12 months)
- Ensure designated staff person provides evaluation and
feedback
All training is provided free of charge. However, a one-time
fee of $40 per training session will be charged to offset the cost
of materials.
