Training Sites

Why Community-Based Training Sites Are Important:

  • They provide trainees with real-life experiences, making the skills they learn more transferable to everyday situations. 
  • They promote inclusion, helping trainees feel like a valued part of the broader community
  • These partnerships offer businesses a fantastic opportunity to learn and implement inclusive practices in real-time, fostering a more inclusive environment for everyone.
