The Progressive Afterschool Practitioner

The Progressive Afterschool Practitioner* is a training designed to heighten a practitioner’s insight into their own professional development. It infuses facets of job satisfaction with professional development planning. By reflecting on individual strengths and areas of growth, an afterschool practitioner is challenged to create a plan for professional development by using the Core Competencies for Afterschool Practitioners as a guide.

*Completion of this training is encouraged before registering for series based trainings.

Prime Time Palm Beach County is offering OST practitioners in Palm Beach County who are currently not receiving an income, specifically front line staff, a $45 stipend for each three-hour professional development training that is completed.
