“The training was tailor-made to exactly what we wanted, with us being able to choose the topics.”

“I enjoyed the mock home visit that the trainer did. I also enjoyed the activities and games throughout the training. Being in-person, there were a lot of breakout groups to dig deeper into the learning process. The trainer walked around, listened, and was available with questions.”

“I really enjoyed how the trainer facilitated the information to better understand and get a refresher on the curriculum. She had a lot of hands-on activities and visuals to make the training fun and interactive. Receiving the training reminded me that we are not alone and always go back to the fidelity book for support.”
