Our Center has received numerous requests for training in the Adult Resilience Curriculum (ARC) for Educators, and now we are excited to offer a 2021-2022 training-of-trainers series for school, district, educational agency, or state-level teams interested in implementing the ARC within their schools or districts.

 

For those who are unfamiliar, the ARC is a 10-module model for implementing well-being at both the individual and organizational level. The curriculum is rooted in adult positive psychology and organizational well-being theories, and it has been adapted to apply across medical and educational settings.

 

The ARC for Educators: A Training of Trainers Series will:

  • Provide an overview and foundation of the ARC for Educators framework;
  • Introduce trainers to the materials for both the core and supplemental skills; and
  • Provide time for implementation planning.

 

To take part, applicants will need to identify 4-8 team members, including persons responsible for implementing the ARC, and submit their applications by 5 p.m. CT Friday, Aug. 20. We strongly recommend that teams include at least one administrative leader or decision-maker, even if this person will not be leading curriculum delivery. In the event of space limitations, preference will be given to teams in HHS Region 7 (Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and Missouri).

 

Accepted teams will convene in two cohorts that meet from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Central Time on the following dates:

 

  • Cohort 1: September 2nd, October 7th, November 4th, December 2nd, January 6th* 
  • Cohort 2: January 6th*, February 3rd, March 3rd, April 7th, May 5th

 

*Both cohorts will attend a special session on January 6, 2022.
