Foundations of Resilience: Training of Trainers

Description

This 2-session course will be held live over Zoom from 9:00 AM – 12:30 PM Pacific Time, on October 9th & 16th.

The Foundations of Resilience: Training of Trainers course is designed for participants who have completed Foundations of Resilience and are ready to lead this work within their own organizations and communities.

This course builds on foundational knowledge by focusing on trauma-informed teaching strategies.  Participants will deepen their understanding of how to effectively deliver resilience-based content using teaching principles focusing on safety, engagement, regulation, and connection. Emphasis is placed on modeling regulation strategies, fostering psychological safety in learning environments, and adapting delivery to meet diverse participant needs.

Throughout the course, trainers will review and strengthen their mastery of core material while developing skills to tailor content to specific organizational contexts. Participants will learn strategies for adapting messaging to varied audiences, facilitating meaningful discussion, navigating resistance, and maintaining fidelity to the resilience framework while allowing for flexibility and responsiveness.

By the end of this course, participants will be prepared to confidently deliver trauma-informed resilience training that reflects best practices in adult education, honors individual and organizational needs, and strengthens sustainable, resilience-centered culture change.
