Patricia, I wanted to take the time to say a BIG THANK YOU! for the professional way you and your staff conducted the successful STEAM training. I have no doubt that the training and general content we experienced over the three-month 6-sessions will help us to provide fun and meaningful program activities for hundreds of deserving youth in our afterschool programs. Through your training sessions, you have given us the skills and opportunity to help youth to think and plan their future in STEAM. You have given us some awesome ideas to plan and work with kids at all levels. I would strongly recommend your program to anyone who is seeking a way to get kids excited about STEAM.

PBC-PQA Basics – Part 1 (Self-Paced Online $)
Participants are REQUIRED TO ATTEND BOTH TRAININGS in the series.
After registering for this training, please register for PBC-PQA Basics Online – Part 2 on May 21, 2020
This engaging and interactive self-paced online training will provide practitioners with the tools and resources needed to conduct a programmatic self-assessment back at their program using the Palm Beach County Program Quality Assessment tool (or PBC-PQA). While an external assessment can supply practitioners with a wealth of valuable information about the quality of their program, being able to conduct the self-assessment process is also very valuable and a best practice within a continuous quality improvement model. By exploring the “quality construct” of the PBC-PQA, participants will learn how to generate precise anecdotal evidence through keen observation and objective note-taking skills and how to use this information for continuous quality improvement purposes.
PBC-PQA Basics Online will take approximately 2-3 hours in total to complete, depending on one’s familiarity with the content and online training process. Practitioners should plan their time accordingly as they will have a two week (5/6/2020-5/20/20) window to complete the coursework. One’s progress will be saved along the way if multiple days or blocks of time are needed to complete.
