Training Information

​

Contact Hours: 60 Contact Hours 

• Contact hours: Clock hours spent in synchronous (real-time) interactions between faculty and participants. This will be time spent in direct instruction, real-time discussions, observation and feedback or practice coaching sessions, and mentoring participants.

• Homework/Independent study: Clock hours spent outside of real-time interaction between faculty and participants (asynchronous). These will include outside reading, writing, research, journaling, practice coaching and various other activities that may occur outside of the synchronous setting. We require synchronous hours be validated so that the activity was completed by the participant.

• We provide 10 hours of Mentor Coaching over a three (3) month or longer period of time. These 10 hours will be integrated into the total contact hours and occur periodically throughout the course of the contact hours.  A minimum of three (3) of the 10 mentoring hours will be one-on-one mentoring.
