Vermont Touchpoints Trainings

We offer Touchpoints trainings in multiple modalities: virtual, in-person, and hybrid. All Touchpoints trainings are a total of 33 hours and include learning and practice phases.

  • The learning phase of Touchpoints trainings include synchronous face-to-face learning and independent work done on the participants own time.  While the total time of the learning phase is the same for all trainings 33 hours, the relative time for face-to-face and independent learning activities varies.
  • The practice phase of Touchpoints follows the learning phase. Participants will practice applying Touchpoints, reflect on their experience using journal prompts, and meet monthly for an hour of face-to-face time to share their reflections and learnings.

All Touchpoints trainings are open to individuals and teams working in early childhood sectors, including early care and education providers, Children’s Integrated Services (CIS) providers, and medical providers.  

Trainings are a $750 value, but are currently free with a commitment to attend all sessions.
