Training
The goal of HealthSmart is to promote the healthy growth and development of youth and give them the knowledge and skills to make healthy choices and establish life-long healthy behaviors.
In the same way the HealthSmart program is grounded in research and best practices, ETR provides a research-based approach to our professional learning processes. This includes the provision of pre-work (to prime participants so they have the background and content information needed to fully engage in the work), skill building, and follow-up implementation support.
ETR offers a variety of training options for HealthSmart users:
Self-Paced Online Orientation
- For new implementers, we offer a Self-Paced Online Orientation to familiarize educators with the HealthSmart framework and research base. Educators with a HealthSmart account can complete the self-paced orientation to learn the basics and become more familiar with the program foundation.
(You must be logged into your HealthSmart subscription to access the Online Orientation below.)
