SAC online trainings are self-paced, easy-to-follow, and fun. Through games, videos, and interactive practice, educators learn the tools and strategies to lead SAC activities with confidence and skill. Each course includes helpful background information, teaching tips, step-by-step guidance for all SAC activities, and recommendations for how to extend and deepen the learning experience. For even more support, contact us to request a customized, virtual, facilitator-led training or coaching session. An online training is included with (and required for) every SAC Kit.
