ARISE Staff Training

ARISE Foundation’s mission is to introduce valuable life skills to youth and adults, enabling them to achieve their highest potential through training and education. This is accomplished through our life skills training program and ARISE Life-Skills Curriculum. You don’t have to hold a college degree in education to be trained as an ARISE instructor. ARISE is taught by those with GED diplomas, volunteers, teachers, counselors—anyone with a desire to help young people. Please click on the following link to see our ARISE Recipe for Success.
The unique ARISE curriculum is created from scratch, specifically for troubled youth. These practical life-skills are easy for learners to understand and ARISE offers training to assist you in making these interactive lessons “come to life” for your students.
Currently, ARISE offers three highly interactive and informative trainings. We have provided below a brief description of each ARISE staff training opportunity. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
For a list of ARISE training dates, please check our Training Calendar. To read about our special program with the Department of Juvenile Justice, please see our Juvenile Justice program page.
ARISE Life-Skills Instructor Certification
This ARISE Life-Skills Training certifies participants as ARISE Life-Skills Instructors (ALSIs). It is a two-day course designed specifically for those who have no formal experience, but who are eager to teach life skills to at-risk youth, particularly those with learning disabilities. 

The ALSI training experience is highly interactive, with many opportunities to practice newfound coaching skills that hold the interest of troubled youth turned off by the usual classroom activities.
Participants discover the ease with which the ARISE Formula promotes high levels of positive interaction with youth in group settings.
ARISE Master Life Skills Training (Train the Trainer)
This five-day intensive training certifies participants as ARISE Master Life-Skills Trainers and enables them to conduct the ARISE two-day (14 hours) Life Skills Instructor Training to professionally certify their staff and colleagues as ARISE Life Skills Instructors. Graduates have the knowledge and confidence to train others to help troubled youth make fundamental changes in their lives. 

This workshop is perfect for organizations that understand the tremendous benefits of having a professionally trained ARISE Certified Master Life Skills Trainer on their staff. ARISE Master Trainers have the necessary qualifications to effectively train staff to meet the needs of at-risk youth for years to come.
ARISE Drop It at the Door
Once the training workshops have ended and participants return to their lives armed with their new knowledge, ARISE keeps in touch through 12
MONTHS of Free 60-minute refresher webinars, Free BIWEEKLY ARISE Booster emails and Free DAILY ARISE 365 Good Vibes inspirational
quotes delivered to their inboxes. 

All are offered as part of the ARISE Drop It at the Door training experience. Studies have shown that without these vital
reminders, the new skills learned during training can become distant memories in as little as two weeks. ARISE workshops are not meant to be quick fixes
for life’s problems.
They are a foundation for a positive way of thinking. In order for the training to be truly successful, participants will want to frequently
revisit and hone the skills they learned. ARISE has provided that support system to ensure maximum retention.
Combo: ARISE Drop It at the Door + Life Skills Training
ARISE provides a special combination that includes:
We offer this training as four consecutive days. For 10 or more participants, it would be financial feasible to have an ARISE trainer conduct The Drop it at the Door training at your location.
ARISE Life-Skills Instructor Certification Girls Initiative
The ARISE Girls Initiative Gender Awareness Training is for adults working in a professional capacity with at-risk young women. During this training, participants learn how to address the needs of this vulnerable population.
“No Training Necessary – But Available”
Questions:
  • Is there an education level (i.e. Masters or Bachelors Degree_ required to teach the ARISE program?
  • Can individuals purchase programs and use the ARISE Curricula without training?
Answers:
  • No, there isn’t a required education level to teach ARISE. The ARISE curricula has been designed specifically for those with no formal teaching experience, however, teachers, counselors, therapists, and others have enhanced their group facilitation skills by attending ARISE trainings.
  • Yes, you can purchase the curricula without training. In fact most of those who are successfully using this remarkable material around the world have never been trained by ARISE. ARISE training is an asset for those unaccustomed to working with at-risk, troubled, often out-of-control youth. These individuals can step right in and begin making a positive change in their lives.
