​

• Training participants can engage with NVCC staff during our monthly Q&A session! Additionally, trainees will be able to discuss the content with other program participants throughout the program.

​

• Program materials include a standard NVCC workbook, a Train-the-Trainer guidebook with note pages, and take-home worksheets to encourage ongoing learning and self-evaluation.
