The third level of NBC training has arrived. Quality in Practice classes are being offered beginning in January 2007. Each class covers one tool with eight hours of series training. Qualified instructors were trained over the summer. There are two incentives for taking this eight hour course. One, the hours will give qualified participants an extra point towards the R.E.E.T.A.I.N. grant. Two, the first 100 participants to complete the course and turn in their application will receive a $50.00 gift certificate to Kaplan Early Learning as part of the Applause Program. Professional Development Coordinators will provide the application to in depth instructors for distribution at the last session.
-
Remember that Not by Chance Tools to Create Quality (formally known as Awareness) class participants can earn college credit from Central Lakes College , Pine Technical College or Metropolitan State College. Contact the Special Projects Coordinator if you do not have the handouts for this.
-
All courses in the NBC curriculum have new marketing copy. Contact the Special Projects Coordinator if you do not have it.
