Train-the-Trainer

Transformations Starts with Education

Traditionally, Train-the-Trainer events are hands-on professional development opportunities for community/technical college and high school instructors.

With the COVID-19 pandemic and the "Safer at Home" initiative still effect, NC3 is working hard to flip the classroom and Keep CTE Moving. We are excited to offer virtual training for our Train-the-Trainer events until we can get back into the classroom.

Please take a look at the upcoming virtual Train-the-Trainer opportunities below.
