The Neurosequential Model in Caregiving: The Arizona Training Project HOST Site Registration Information

FEBRUARY 27TH LIVE WEBINAR INFORMATION

THIS IS A VERY LONG EMAIL WITH LOTS OF DETAILS, PLEASE READ ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM BEFORE REGISTERING AS A HOST SITE.

We are looking for host sites, generally foster care licensing or behavioral health agencies, for the live Neurosequential Model in Caregiving foster parent training webinars.  Host sites will be asked to recruit foster parents, kinship families, post adoptive families, and staff to attend the webinars and may choose to have a facilitated discussion after each webinar with attendees.  Host sites will be allowed to register for the webinars before other individuals register and will have responsibility for tracking those who attend at their site and sharing that information with the Arizona Council staff.  We want to ensure that host sites are available throughout the state so that foster parents can have easy access to the webinars.  We have a limited number of sites who can join the live webinars.  You do not have to agree to be available for all webinar dates to be a host site. 

Host sites may also choose to view archived videos with foster, kinship, and post-adoptive families as well.  If this occurs, the host site will be responsible for tracking those who attend and sharing that information with the Arizona Council staff.  There will be a separate log-in required for the archived webinar videos.

All attendees watching live videos and those in the library will be asked to participate in a series of evaluations over the course of the three-year project.  We are planning to offer a raffle prize opportunity for those who complete the evaluation.  

We are currently registering HOST sites for the Neurosequential Model in Caregiving Webinar scheduled for Monday, February 27th, 2017.   We hope to have HOST sites available throughout the state of Arizona.  HOST sites will recruit and register foster parent, kinship families, post adoptive families, and staff participants, provide the Arizona Council with participant contact information, and agree to participate in the program evaluation.  We give first priority to Arizona Council member agencies to be HOST sites.

REGISTRATION AND SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:

A registration invitation will be sent out three weeks prior to each webinar through Constant Contact.  You will need to complete a separate registration for each host site with the host site facilitator name and contact information.  For instance, if you have facilities in Phoenix, Tucson, and Flagstaff you will need to register each site individually.  Approximately one week before each webinar those who are registered will be sent a link to log into the webinar. 

To be able to log into the webinar, you must have strong, high speed internet, an updated computer to connect to the internet, a projector/screen, and a sound system with speakers that allow the audience to hear the webinar.  You will be in “listen only” mode, so you will not need a speakerphone or webcam to watch the webinar.  They prefer that you connect to the audio via your computer system, not by phone.  You will be able to hear Dr Perry and view his presentation on the computer.

UPCOMING LIVE WEBINAR DATES:

Approximately 24 hours after each webinar, Arizona Council staff will receive the link to the archived video.  A registration invitation will be sent to our contact lists via Constant Contact to access the archived video.  You will register for the access to the archive and should receive a return email within 24 hours with the link to the archived video.  If you are using the archived video for a group of people as a host site, you will need to collect and share information about those who participate with you.  We will also be asking those who watch the videos in the archive library to participate in the evaluation. 

CERTIFICATES OF ATTENDANCE:

At this point, we will not be offering CEU’s for the training, but certificates of attendance will be available if needed.  You will request these from Julia Drake at jdrake@azcouncil.com or 602.252.9363.  Host sites may also provide certificates of attendance the day of webinar. 

EVALUATION:

Evaluation of a program like this is critical to seeing if we were successful in teaching the Neurosequential Model in Caregiving to participants and if it helped them better understand and manage difficult behaviors in a trauma informed manner.  Participants in the live and archived webinars will receive a short evaluation by email approximately 90 days after the webinar.  Those who complete the evaluation will be entered into a drawing for a gift card.  Raffle winners will be notified by email.
