For many young adults, becoming a youth worker is a wonderful way to gain experience and to work in their own communities. At YIPA, we believe that youth support working training does not have to be difficult, costly, or overwhelming, which is why we have created our on-demand and live webinars.
Our training for youth workers is very reasonably priced, and we offer special discounts for YIPA members, including both individual and organizational memberships. Our programs are designed to provide specific information on areas of professional development that are essential to being an effective youth worker in any community.
The Education Component
One of the challenges that many prospective youth workers experience is the lack of understanding of how to manage the complicated aspects of the job. YIPA makes that easy with youth support working training that helps you to understand at-risk behaviors, help youth experiencing trauma, treat mindfulness, help youth experiencing homelessness, and a range of other important and real-world topics in communities across the United States.
By engaging in these short, one or two hour online trainings for youth workers, prospective and new youth workers are confident they have the skills needed to tackle these big issues.
We even provide support for intercultural engagement, helping youth workers to understand how to communicate more effectively with different cultures and groups. This training gives you the confidence to reach out to youth and be a resource for your community in your role as a youth worker.
