adult facilitator training

Urbanthinkers has been specializing in youth engagement since 1997, and the resulting tools and experience are available for your community. We offer three types of training sessions which can easily be adapted for your community:

1. Youth Engagement 101 - a seminar for decision-makers and supervisors who are making the decision to expand active transportation solutions with older students. 
2. Adult Facilitator Training - a hands-on training workshop whose specific topics and examples are based on participants' responses to a pre-workshop questionnaire.
3. Youth Leader Start-Up workshop - co-facilitated by Urbanthinkers along with a local adult facilitator.
