Scheduled Training Events
While our long term vision is global, KidLead will always be local, avoiding expensive travel costs and promoting community impact. Following is a list of current and upcoming training programs, listed by state, city/area. We may have certified trainers in your area who are have not scheduled a training event. If you have interest in introducing KidLead to your community or organization, please contact us.
In each module, participants receive these materials in addition to 12-hours of training and parents get 3-hours of skill development. Additional modules include a t-shirt, notebook contents, concept cards, symbols, and certificate. This is at a tiny fraction of the cost of adult, corporate comparisons.
