L.E.A.D. Certification Training
L.E.A.D. offers Instructor Certification Training for officers and educators nationwide, preparing them to bring Botvin LifeSkills® Training (LST) into the classroom. Training options depend on your starting point: a 1-Day Advanced Training for experienced teachers, anyone already trained to teach in the classroom, or current L.E.A.D.-certified instructors who haven’t yet trained on the LST curriculum specifically — and a 5-Day Certification Training for candidates without prior classroom-teaching training. The costs of the L.E.A.D. Certification Training are subsidized by L.E.A.D. due to the generous support of donors nationwide.
