The field of nature education is incredibly diverse, and this can make designing good staff training programs difficult, especially for new program directors or leaders. What are some of the problems that come up when we try to deliver and download a lot of information to people in a short period of time?  How do we emphasize important topics and make them 'sticky' so they will be clear if needed?   How do we evaluate our current staff training and know if they are working well, or could use improvement? This episode dives into the deep end with this subject, because consistency in our forest programs, no matter who we serve and in what setting, is one of the key elements of establishing our work in a professional manner.  It keeps us safe, our participants safe and helps us feel confident knowing that our staff can handle the daily issues that pop up on any given day out in the field.
