When does the local leader orientation and site coordinator training take place? Where is the ER&D training?
The local leader training is normally in January. The site coordinator or strand coordinator training is 10 days at Summer and Winter Institutes. Local leaders come back to the January institute to help develop local action plans. Local leaders will attend the orientation mid-January. Local site coordinators will be trained at a summer institute in July with the Winter Institute the following February. A local beginning an ER&D program must start with the Foundation strand. Locals that have programs up and running may then develop new strands.
