~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We offer workshop leader training for the Chronic Disease
Self-Management Program (CDSMP) under a license from Stanford University. If you
are interested in becoming a CDSMP workshop leader, please contact us. The
training is provided at NO COST. In exchange it is our expectation that you will
deliver 2 - 3 workshop sessions over the next year.
Workshop leaders are trained volunteers. Leader
backgrounds vary: for example, persons with chronic conditions, healthcare
professionals, retired persons from many walks of life, and anyone with a desire
to share valuable information on how to self-manage a chronic condition.
All workshops are designed to be conducted by 2 people.
The 2 1/2 hour workshops are delivered over a 6-week period. Participation
is limited to 12 - 16 persons in each workshop series. Leaders are
provided with all materials (including snacks) as well as assistance with
scheduling, locations and promotion. At the end of each workshop series
leaders are provided a $100 stipend to help offset the cost of transportation.
Each workshop leader is teamed with another
certified program leader to deliver the structured six-class series to classes
of 10-18 participants with chronic conditions that range from arthritis and
osteoporosis to diabetes and heart disease. The instruction provides:
-
techniques to deal with frustration, fatigue, pain and depression
-
exercises
for maintaining and improving strength, flexibility and endurance
-
medication
management
-
nutrition information and
-
approaches for improving
communication with family, friends, and health care professionals.
Workshop leader training is conducted over a 4 day
period. Generally, the hours of the training are 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM on each of
the four days. You must attend all of the training session to be certified
as a workshop leader. Lunch, beverages and snacks are provided. Each
workshop leader receives a detailed leader's manual, and a copy of the
workshop's textbook and audio CDs (if applicable). The training session is
structured to provide ample opportunity to practice delivery of workshop
information. All materials are supplied and we assist with locations, scheduling
and promotion.
At the conclusion of the leader training you will be well
prepared and confident in your abilities to deliver the program.
Workshop leader training is conducted by our Stanford
certified Master Trainers.
