Instructions:
1. The sections build from one another. It benefits to move through sections in order from the Introduction to Stage III. In order to register that you have completed the lesson instead of hitting NEXT please hit COMPLETE at the bottom of the screen.
2. If there are corresponding recordings, handouts, resources, or other supplemental materials in the lesson, there will be embedded images and links so that you can view during the lesson, and choose which materials you want to print out.
3. At the end of many lessons, there are reflection and integration questions in order to help you get the most impact from the lesson you went through and make the information accessible for your work with youth.
4. If you click on a link or the questions and it does not create a seperate window (i.e. those working on a IPad, tablet, or phone) you will need to click your browsers BACK button to return to your lesson or make note of where you were in order to come back.
5. If you have questions, if anything doesn't make sense, if something feels out of order, or if you have feedback as you go; you can reach out to me directly by email at jessicar@acornoakcounseling.com or message on the community board to interact with others in the program.
6. There is a full PDF program workbook located in the References section and labeled Creating Competency Prevention Program. This is a digital download of the entire program so if you learn or do better with tangible paper version of this information you can work through it that way!
Important Reminder:
There is a lot of information here, so it is built for people to go at their own pace and to integrate the pieces and takeaways that most make sense for their work.
