“Adult training: in this first year offering our training program nationally, we enrolled students from the new england region, texas, georgia, and california. Interested students received graduate credits through southern new hampshire university. Our enrollment numbers increased by 35% this year. We tracked outcomes for students in our introductory workshops and courses. The latter group reported significant improvements in personal and professional wellbeing and enhanced ability to: support classroom focus and learning retention develop student agency in finding emotional stability create positive classroom dynamics address symptoms and anxiety and greater skill in turning around aggressive or apathetic behaviors in 2021, we completed a second edition of our 280-page training manual, "helping students thrive," honed our strategic plan, and supported educators working with students from the early years through high school. To meet growing interest in our approach, we established a strategic priority to build a 4-tier training program leading to a "trainer certification." the certification track includes our foundations course, two intermediate level courses, and a final internship, for a total of 225 hours of training. We established a goal to roll out intermediate courses in 2022-23 and commence internships in the fall of 2023.”
