+ About the Training +

Become a Certified Trainer!
Developing healthy workplaces in Indian Country is a challenge, just as it is anywhere. Stress, job turnover, politics, and turfism often impede the important work needing to get done! People are more effective in their jobs when they understand their own behavior and that of others, and grow and develop personally and professionally. Taking time for self-care reduces stress and increases productivity and focus.

Become a certified trainer in the Leading the Next Generations Wellness in the Workplace Curriculum. The training of trainers experience focuses on the importance of creating team, planning and prioritizing work, exploring the origin of ineffective workplace behaviors, learning ways to introduce balance and flexibility into the workplace, and honing important skills such as communication, conflict resolution, dealing with cultural differences, stress reduction and work/life balance. Upon completing the training, participants will have tools to help coworkers with personal wellness planning and organizational direction to introduce and maintain wellness in the workplace! Each  person will receive a copy of the curriculum and certificate of completion.
