Things to know about the Southern California Institute
|
Out of respect for our donor dollars, this event has been planned with an eye toward creating the most comprehensive training event possible for the least cost and the least environmental impact. You will see this demonstrated by the facilities selected and the training methodologies. By making those choices, more volunteers and employees can be trained in on how to provide vital services.
You will have a choice between two tickets: Southern California Institute Commuter or Southern California Institute Overnighter. Overnight tickets are $45 and Commuter tickets are $25. Both tickets are good for one to four days of training, depending on your course selections. |
