Whether you have been using the program for some time and are looking for a refresher course, or you are just getting started you won't want to miss this event. Over the last year we have seen some great examples of how the program is being used and have received a lot of great feedback. Now we would like to share that information with all of you.

What will be covered in the training?training

  • Experiential Activities - See the experiential activities demonstrated and get first hand training and ideas on how you can increase participation and learning for everyone involved.
  • Surrendering the "One-up" Relationship with Individuals and in Group or Classroom Settings - This is perhaps the most important addition to the program. Research shows that over 80% of change in an individual results from interpersonal relationships. We will show you some powerful techniques and tools to help you build trusting relationships and motivate those you work with.
  • WhyTry Music Applications - Hear the WhyTry music, learn ways to teach using the music, and see demonstrations on how to process the music.
  • Basic Training - We will also be covering all the basics on how to use the program including the workbook, the motivation formula, the visual analogies, group applications, individual interventions, classroom curriculum and more.
  • Teaching A WhyTry Class - We have received some great feedback and ideas from several of you who have been using the program in a classroom environment. As a result we have compiled an outline for setting up and running a class using the WhyTry Program.
  • Observe it in practice - If you have been to one of our presentations or training sessions before, you have probably heard us explain how to use the program. This time you will see it and experience it for your self. We will include several live demonstrations as well as opportunities for you to participate
  • trainingWhyTry Certification - Be one of the first to be trained and certified in the WhyTry program. Certified individuals will get access to new materials before they are released. They will also become part of our valued feedback team, become involved in pilot programs and will be invited to participate in our WhyTry.org Discussion Groups. (coming soon)
  • Continuing Education Units – Most districts accept up to 10 clock hours for this training. If you have any questions about the type of continuing ed credits you are looking for please contact us.
