Presentations and Training Program
FAQ
1. When are you coming to my area?
We provide seminars and
training programs when individuals,
groups, schools, business, agencies or organizations
contract with us to come to their community. This group or individual assumes
responsibility for the location
of the seminar, publicity and so forth.
2. How do organizers
publicize your seminars and training programs?
One secret to a successful event is getting the word
out. Another key is giving people something of value
for registering (e.g.. All of our participants receive
Power Point presentations and access to our web site for further information).
Successful organizers make phone calls, distribute
flyers and send news releases to local newspapers.
Organizers also often arrange for us to be
interviewed on local talk radio shows a few weeks ahead of the program - this
is a good way to get the word out.
We post notices about upcoming seminars and training programs on
our web site and we build
a separate web page for each event that includes answers to questions about
the agenda, registration, directions, accommodations and
what to see and do in the area.
3. How do organizers get money to fund your
seminars and workshops?
Individuals, schools and organizations find creative
ways to fund our training programs. Some organizers
get financial assistance from companies, hospitals, medical practices,
non-profit associations, bar associations and law
firms. Others get support from their state parent training information center,
protection & advocacy agencies, school districts,
and/or state departments of education.
Still others charge a fee for registration which covers program costs.
