What others have said about the training . . .
​
"The initial 3-day training was exactly what I needed to bring me up to date with current practice in my district. I learned way more than I expected during this retraining course. Jennifer thoroughly covered the components of the program and provided us with an abundance of resources and guidance to use the Take Flight curriculum with fidelity. I am so glad to have found this training."
