Personal and Professional Development
Some examples of training we have offered or hosted, includes: WRAP facilitator, Laughter Yoga leader, Non-Violent Crisis Intervention, Fundraising, Nutrition and Wellness Specialist, etc.
NOTE: when funding permits training will take place in person. Many learning opportunities are available through web-based sources.
LERN will attempt to offer training at little to no cost for our members, but there may be opportunities for which a cost may apply. For example; the purchase of manuals for certain training, or ongoing maintenance of individual certifications. LERN can also bring or connect our members with other learning opportunities throughout our region.
