Resilience Lab Train the Trainer (TTT) is to equip professionals working with young people with the confidence, skills and knowledge and tools to deliver OTR's Resilience Lab programme. This programme has been developed in conjunction with young people and is based on research around how we can build and promote resilience. 

The 5 areas of the course all focus on different aspects of the trait and include background knowledge, practical activities and self-help tools/skills that people can take away. They include: Pressure Proof, Making Friends with Stress, Thinking Traps, SuperMe and Reach Out.

This is a health promotion/preventative course that is suitable for anyone. It is not just for people who have already identified themselves as struggling and is suitable and adaptable for any age group. We also know from our work that participants on our Train the Trainer programme gain skills for themselves that they can use within their professional practice. Once completed professionals will be able to run Resilience Lab sessions for groups and also how to adapt some of these skills to working 1:1.

What participants will receive:

• 4 x 2.5 hours online sessions of OTR's Resilience Lab Train the Trainer programme that equips with the knowledge and content of each of the 5 Resilience Lab sessions, as well as a grounding in the research and theories around resilience. These will either be spread out over 4 weeks or completed in 2 full days.
• Materials and tools for professionals and their organisations to deliver Resilience Lab including the handbook with session plans and associated worksheets.
• Access to updated and/or new Resilience Lab resources
• Access to some light touch further support.
