Benefits of Hosting a Community Intervention Training Seminar
- Cost savings. In addition to paying a reduced tuition, you save on the travel and lodging expenses of sending someone to a training. You may earn revenue that can be applied toward program development or scholarships.
- An Established Program Support Network. Training at least 25 people from a localized area ensures that participants will network and support one another throughout program implementation.
- Immediate Results. The power of training a large local contingency is evident in the efficiency of program implementation. Participants who attend training together are more likely to work together as a team to handle local policy changes, action plan development, and supplemental resource acquisition.
- Burnout Prevention. It is wise to train more people than will be needed to implement programs initially. To prevent burnout, rotate facilitators every 2 years and have back-up facilitators to replace those lost due to turnover or retirement.
- Good Public Relations. Training is a great opportunity to contribute to your community. We encourage press coverage. The trainer can be available for an interview and television coverage.
- Free Program Consultation. You have the opportunity to spend time with the trainer. You can discuss program concerns during the training and grapple with local issues over lunch. Further, when you sponsor training, Community Intervention provides ongoing technical assistance for as long as you need.
- Customized Training. We customize the training to meet your local needs. For instance, if you have a particular problem with spit tobacco use, we can spend extra time on it. If girls use tobacco for weight control, then we bring along resources to help.
- We'll make you look good. Participants speak very highly of this training and leave the training wanting more. Over and over, participants say it is the best training they have ever attended. As a result, facilitators will be enthusiastic, committed, and grateful for your leadership.
