Our Training Gets Great Reviews ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“I received tons of good information about becoming a more father-friendly organization in the Father Engagement Certificate™ training. I immediately had a staff meeting to implement many of the things that were learned through the materials.”
Executive Director, Iowa City, Iowa
“The length of the Effective Facilitation Certificate™ was adequate to thoroughly cover the topic. I found the information regarding facilitators' outer and inner focus and the types of cognitive biases that are common among fathers to be especially enlightening!”
