Active Parenting's Online
Development Team spent the winter updating and
improving our exciting Active Parenting Today
Online Groups program, and held classes in
February. The new format is a success and we'll
be rolling out the online program in earnest this
fall. Already we have heard from several
corporations about offering Active Parenting
Today Online to their employees.
But what's a parenting education program without
a leader? We're committed to providing a closely
monitored online parenting group experience, and
as more and more parents sign up, we'll be
needing more and more leaders. The $59.95 cost
for the leaders-in-training course is guaranteed
through June 30, 2001, but is expected to rise in
the fall.
How to be certified as an online leader
To ensure a valuable learning experience for
parents who enroll in the online course, we will
require leaders to be certified before
contracting with you to lead a class. The process
is simple:
|
- Complete an application.
The application is available online. Go to: http://www.activeparenting.com/LeaderInfo.htm
- Participate in a Leaders-in-Training Online
Group.
If your application is approved, we will schedule
you into an online group. Through June 30, 2001,
the cost of the course is $59.95.
- Complete the content evaluation
quiz and a writing sample.Our goal is to provide
parents signing up for the online course with a
rich learning opportunity. We will require
confirmation that our leaders have a thorough
understanding of Active Parenting principles.
Since certified online leaders will be
representing Active Parenting through written
communication, we will also require a sample of
your writing. (You will be asked to answer, in
writing, a question from an imaginary parent.)
Note: Active Parenting Training of Trainers
graduates are required to complete only the
writing sample.
- Lead a trial Active Parenting Today Online
Group.
Upon successful completion of the evaluation,
you'll be invited to lead your first APT Online
Group. We will monitor your first class and
provide feedback and pointers to help you. (You
will be paid according to the normal payment
policy for leading this group.)
- Submit $15 certification fee, if approved.
At the end of the trial course, our Training
Director will evaluate your performance and
provide you with feedback. If requirements have
been successfully met, you will be invited to
submit a $15 certification fee to receive your
Online Leader's Kit. You will then be certified
to lead Active Parenting Today Online Groups!
