2023 Staff Professional Development Schedule
Pre-season professional development is for all staff to ensure a smooth start to the summer.
All staff includes: Team leaders, Counselors, Junior counselors and CIT's
PRE-SEASON ONLINE TRAINING 2023
To streamline our pre-camp training process and make it more convenient for staff, we have created a powerful online training program for the 2023 season. This helps you to prepare for camp at your own pace with minimal in-person meetings before camp. We have included a lot of valuable training materials to help you excel this summer and be awesome!
Additionally, we are excited to offer a $75 bonus for each of the two online trainings, giving you the opportunity to earn an extra $150.
Here's what you can expect from our online training:
1. Expert Online Training Videos: These videos, presented by industry youth leaders, feature realistic scenarios with counselors and campers, focusing on practical leadership skills. Each video is followed by a quiz.
You will get a link to sign in to this online training. If you did not get a link, please email us.
Completing this course before June 23 will earn you bonus #3 on the staff pay scale, adding $75 to your earnings.
2. Staff Handbook Online: Our staff handbook is now available online in a user-friendly, mobile-friendly format. You can access it anytime, anywhere. Each topic in the handbook includes a quiz to ensure you grasp the information thoroughly.
You will get a link to sign in to this online training. If you did not get a link, please email us.
