CIH Train The Trainers Delaware, OH September 2019

Certified Interpretive Host Train-the-Trainers Workshop

September 23-26 or September 24-25, 2019
Deer Haven Park, Delaware, Ohio
Instructor: Emily Jacobs



Are you looking for training that combines nonformal interpretation skills with customer service? Do you want to train/certify staff and others on behalf of NAI? If so, this course is for you! This course has two different tracks for attendance and certification. For individuals who are not current Certified Interpretive Trainers (CIT) with NAI, a four-day course will be held September 23-26. In this session, you will learn how NAI teaches interpretation, what is expected for Certified Interpretive Host (CIH) certification and will complete two requirements for becoming a CIT. If you already are a CIT, are fully sanctioned as a CIG instructor, and want to teach the CIH as well, come for only two of the days, September 24-25. Once you take the class, you can use NAI's curriculum and certify staff and volunteers at your own site or serve as a contractor to sites without a trainer on staff.

Lodging can be obtained on your own at several lodging options in and around Delaware, Ohio and range from a 10 – 20-minute drive from the host site.
