Programs: Training of Trainers

Training of Trainers (TOT)

52 TOT trained parent facilitators from around Oregon came together to learn and share on June 11th for a 5 hour Convivio (conference) at the Oregon Parent Education Center.  The group discussed positive strategies to advocate for students within schools and the importance of effective parental involvement.  The next Convivio is scheduled for October 29th.

The Training of Trainers (TOT) program, an offshoot of the POP, offers facilitation training and support for other communities interested in adopting the "Educate and Inspire" curriculum and creating a similar program to empower parents. The TOT is currently available in Spanish.  An English adaptation for African-American parents is under development and will be piloted in Portland in the fall of 2010.
