This person will become more confident and comfortable leading sexuality education classes for people with I/DD as well as train staff and parents either one-on-one or in groups\, so they can promote the sexual health of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

This certificate does not make you a certified sexuality educator and trainer.  \nHere’s what our participants say: \n“This training conquered a challenging topic area that is so crucial and much needed to allow our clients to lead autonomous\, independent\, and fulfilling lives. I feel well prepared to take this on in my workplace\, providing trainings to our direct care staff and participants directly.”  \n“This was the most well taught course of instruction and materials I’ve attended in years. Totally current and relevant\, Exceeded my expectations 100%. The quality of any energy experience in this course was of such high caliber that I would recommend it to any person serving the DD population.” \n“I learned a lot of different presentation techniques as well as different ways to keep the flow of a training going. I liked absolutely everything about the training. Honestly\, it was the best training that I have ever attended. I loved the content and presentation. I can’t wait to implement.”  \n“I learned that I have the ability to train co-workers\, parents\, and clients about this topic. I liked that it was comfortable. The training was very informative. The curriculum is clear\, easy to use\, and thorough. When I return to work I am going to discuss this training with my supervisor and implement ASAP.”  \nTraining Description \nWhen it comes to talking about sexuality\, people with disabilities are often excluded\, almost as if they are incapable of having sexual thoughts\, feelings and needs. In reality\, they too are sexual beings who need the information and skills for making healthy decisions about sexuality. Though agencies and schools who work with people with I/DD know that sexuality issues need to be addressed\, they don’t necessarily feel comfortable or competent enough to do so. This workshop will give you the curriculum\, tools\, and skills to teach sexuality education classes and lead staff training and parent workshops.  \nObjectives \nAs a result of this training\, you will be able to: \n\nDescribe how to help people with disabilities become sexual self-advocates.\nIdentify our own values and attitudes and how those impact your ability and effectiveness in teaching this topic.\nExplore the qualities of a good sexuality educator and trainer.\nCreate elevator speeches to get buy in for implementation. \nExplain what makes it difficult for staff and parents to talk about sexuality with consumers and  discuss solutions to those barriers. \nList ways to teach this topic with other agency staff\, parents\, and people with disabilities. \nDemonstrate effective training techniques to use with staff\, parents\, and people with disabilities.\n\nTuition: \nTuition for this certificate training is $1095\, or $845 if you already own a copy of Sexuality Education for People with Developmental Disabilities Curriculum.
