NIATx Coach Academy

Event description
Sponsored by BSAS
Yes

The training is designed to develop NIATx coaches.  In a 2013 National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA) study of different approaches to technical assistance, coaching was shown to be the most important element in supporting NIATx improvement projects.  This training follows lessons learned from the application of Lean and Six Sigma models.  A thorough grounding in theory is coupled with practice during and after the two days.  Hence, this proposal pairs newly trained coaches with those who have completed a Change Leader Academy allowing for direct practice with NIATx Coaching.  Coaches receive ongoing training and mentoring to further develop skills in conflict resolution strategies, knowledge of organizational politics and change.  Coaches will be asked to provide coaching to 1-3 Change Leaders, and where possible to attend a day-long Change Leader Academy in March as well as a day-long wrap up for Coaches and the New Change Leaders

Due to space limitations we will be giving priority to those with prior NIATx training and experience.  For questions regarding the content and applicability of the training please email regarding your interest in this training to TommieBower@gmail.com.
