- Be an employee/staff with a nonprofit organization; independent
personal trainers, consultants, and for-profit individuals/groups are
not eligible to attend the training or to implement the StrongWomen
Program. If you are not an employee/staff of a nonprofit BUT are
working in partnership with a nonprofit organization to implement the
program, you must submit a letter from the nonprofit organization as
your sponsor. In addition, all leaders are required to sign a scope of
use agreement regarding nonprofit use of the program only as well as an
understanding that this is not a train-the-trainer program (you are
being trained to implement programs and are not permitted to train new
trainers).
- Be actively strength training. Being physically active in general
is, of course, important. But, the expectation is that you are very
familiar with lifting weights and are personally committed to and
regularly practicing the behavior. This is a mandatory criteria for
eligibility.
- Have a firm commitment to starting a program in your community. This
training is to teach you how to lead a StrongWomen Program, and should
not be attended simply for informational/personal purposes.
