Inclusion Ambassador Training
The Inclusion Ambassador Training Online is an exciting way for youth and others to earn certificates and badges as they learn how to promote inclusion, whether as a part of a Scout activity, a summer recreation staff training, a junior camp counselor activity, a 4-H project or other avenues.
The 3-hour online training is hosted by a teenager with Down syndrome, Jess, who guides students through the 6 units in the training via animated cartoons. Social media is used to post experiential projects and activities. After taking quizzes and a final exam, students become Inclusion Ambassadors.
The Inclusion Ambassador Training is available for free to any Certified Inclusivity Assessor who has completed Inclusion U Online. A CIA can invite as many people as they would like to complete the training for free.
Ideally, the full-time staff at an agency would complete Inclusion U Online, then invite and mentor their part-time and seasonal staff through the Inclusion Ambassador Training.
