JCI Norway National training weekend report

JCI Drammen made a fantastic event - the JCI Norway National Training weekend. Among a series of trainings (including Line Dance), the new signature trainings JCI Presenter and JCI Trainer was held first time in Europe - and it was a great success! Read the report below!

The JCI PRIME signature course is about to be replaced by two other trainings - the JCI Presenter, a one day training focusing on how to be a succesfull presenter, and JCI Trainer, a two day training on how to be a great trainer.

I had the great pleasure to be Assistant trainer of both these new courses this weekend. It was first time in Europe, and third time overall that these trainings has been conducted. I was truly honoured to be selected to do the training here in Norway. The Head Trainer was Suzette Plaisted, the JCI Comissioner out of JCI USA. She is a great trainer, a superb coach and a lovely woman. If you ever get the chance to assist her - jump on board and do it!

As a part of the new system, the trainings are now conducted by the assistant trainers, and the HT role has turned into a coaching of the ATs. That is a great opportunity to all trainers out there - now you can become a master trainer by assisting other great trainers. In order to become a HT yourself, you need the following:

* Level CNT
* Conduct and HT approval on ALL the modules in the training(s)
* Take the Head Trainers training (first possibility at the EC)

So - if you want to do like I do - help other trainers become the new pulse of JCI - go on out there and be an assistant trainer. It is so enriching, so encouraging and so much fun!

Suzette also invited me to assist her on JCI Prime classes in the US - I will have to be quick to do it, as JCI Prime will be arranged no more after 2007.

So - if you are interested in a training career in JCI - go ahead - it will never happen if you do not start! Make it happen!

And let me know how I can help you suceed!
