The Tuning in to Kids® suite of evidence-based parenting programs include Tuning in to Kids®, Tuning in to Teens™ and Dads Tuning in to Kids™.
Tuning in to Kids® parenting programs are run exclusively by professionals who have been trained and certified as Tuning in to Kids®, Tuning in to Teens™ and/or Dads Tuning in to Kids™ facilitators, and are in high demand around Australia and internationally.
Our facilitator training is suitable for anyone who works with parents in a professional capacity, particularly in family and community services, child protection, foster/kinship care, health, mental health and education sectors. The professional training can also be useful in helping professionals develop emotion coaching skills that may have benefits in different aspects of their work or with their own family and friends.
Once certified, professionals can also register to advertise their Tuning in to Kids® parent groups, free of charge, via our online calendar.
Upon completion of training, facilitators are invited to attend regular free one hour online supervision sessions. Bookings are essential. Please see our events page for upcoming supervision dates.
To find a public workshop to attend, please browse the calendar for our Professional Programs. Workshops are also held periodically in the USA, UK and Norway and can also be organised in different countries by contacting the Training Manager.
