Post-training, Master Trainers will receive a certificate of completion and the ability to host training sessions throughout the region. Master Trainers will be able to facilitate two different trainings: (1) 2 hour CC/HL training sessions for workforce professionals and (2) 7.5 hour master training sessions for future master-trainers.
Participants must register online by February 23, 2016. Due to the interactive nature of this program, registration is limited to 30 participants. A maximum of 2 participants per organization will be selected to attend.
