Get New Trainers

Does your program need new tutor trainers?  Then select some volunteers/staff to attend the Florida Literacy Coalition's Train the Trainer Course starting May 4 as a preconference to the Florida Literacy Conference. 

Every program needs tutor trainers on site, and strong programs have several trainers.  Experienced volunteers are a good source of new trainers.  Some may be ready to grow into different roles in your organization.

Recruit volunteers who are computer savy.  Often new college graduates are a good source because they have taken online courses to get their degrees.  If you can find trainers interested in blending online tutor training with face to face opportunities, you will have a more flexible tutor training mode.  Sign up by March 19 for the train the trainer course.  Travel assistance is available.  Go to http://www.floridaliteracy.org/ to sign up.
