Announcing New Head Start Governance Training Course to Use in Meeting Federal Training Requirements for Local Program Governing Entities
New On-Demand Course, "Program Governance 101" Prepares Local Head Start Governing Body and Policy Council Members for Administering the Requirements of An Effective Program. The Self-Paced Methodology Supports Individual and Group Training While Reducing Travel Expenses.
- (1888PressRelease) October 28, 2011 - What's an annual challenge and requirement for every Head Start program across the nation? Providing up-to-date orientation and training for your Policy Council and Governing Body. Shared governance is a cornerstone of the Head Start model, and providing quality information to your policymakers is critical to excellent service delivery to your families. Utilizing a self-paced, on-demand, incremental learning format for your decision makers creates confidence that your program will operate with informed and knowledgeable governing members.
"With the Federal Office of Head Start continually releasing significant updates and changes to the requirements for Head Start programs," says Teresa Gilbert, "every local program will need to stay abreast of current regulations to be well prepared."
Program Governance 101 is a newly released, on-demand training course that combines relevant, user-friendly training with the advantage of saving important T/TA dollars. Developed in four short modules, Program Governance 101 can be used in a variety of ways, including as an agenda item for a regular meeting, for individual instruction, as a day-long comprehensive overview, or in short, self-paced training segments.
Gilbert explains, "Program Governance 101 can be used for one participant, or for many. You pay one cost per grantee or delegate program, and then you train as many participants affiliated with your program as you need to. There are no 'per person' costs for the training."
Policy Councils and Governing Bodies need the basics of Head Start, both when they are brand new, to become oriented to the big picture; and also for veteran members, to receive new information each year and a refresher to ongoing regulations.
Program Governance 101 introduces critical concepts that every Policy Council and Governing Body should know, including:
- The basics of program governance
- Roles and responsibilities
- The federal monitoring review
- The performance standards
Every Head Start program across the nation is responsible for the same federal standards, so Program Governance 101 is relevant and applies to every local program, regardless of the type of grantee or delegate or grantee agency.
Head Start decision-makers across the nation are invited to peruse the information page on the internet, and enjoy the free preview module provided for you there. You can take a closer look at the content of the course and how it can help meet the training needs of your Policy Council and Governing Body.
