Options to accommodate various needs and budgets

Training Programs

ACCI provides the following training options that accommodate different budget constraints and which support end users in utilizing our cognitive life skills curriculum and programs.

Self-Help Training

This is an economical option for agencies that already have a skilled facilitator on board and simply want to become familiar with ACCI group courses and prepare group session plans. It is highly recommended that group facilitators purchase the Facilitator Manual that corresponds with each group course. We also offer a completeTraining Kit which includes a Master Facilitator Guide, group activities, a DVD and other group supplements.

Lifeskills Link Training

The Lifeskills Link Program Training can be offered at no cost to community corrections agencies, courts, and other referring agencies. This training empowers each officer, case manager or court to apply evidence-based practices by addressing dynamic criminogenic risk factors which are highly correlated with the likelihood to commit a crime or repeat crime. Each participant will be given his/her own Lifeskills Link.com account – a web-based referral system. Get started now and create your Lifeskills Link Account.
