Questions about student training

Do you offer student leadership training?

Yes. We lead student leadership, belonging, officer training, public speaking and workplace readiness sessions for schools, districts, CTSOs and afterschool programs.

Who books student training?

Usually a school, district, CTSO chapter or state association. Tell us about your students and we will build the session with you.

Can you train CTSO officers before their term starts?

Yes. Officer training before or early in the term is one of our most requested sessions.

Do your student safety sessions include OSHA cards?

No. They teach young worker safety awareness and habits, not official OSHA Outreach courses.
