This training includes self-paced content (videos, reflection activities, and readings) and live, instructor-led virtual sessions. Registered participants will receive correspondence in late-July inviting them to our online platform (TalentLMS) and will need to complete about 2 hours of self-paced work prior to the first live session. All participants have access to digital curriculum files. Participants will be mailed a Food Smarts curriculum bundle (includes an Adult workbook and instructor guide and a Kids workbook and instructor guide) only upon request. If we receive this information after July 14, 2025, your curriculum bundle may arrive after the first live session.
