Become a Restorative Practices Trainer

Experienced restorative practitioners who are seeking instruction and guidance on how to teach key concepts of Restorative Practices for Educators and/or Restorative Justice Conferencing to others, can become Restorative Practices Trainers. At the conclusion of the Training of Trainers, you will be prepared to teach others the IIRP Curriculum and assist in the implementation of restorative practices in your school or organization.

This interactive training will include:

Review of IIRP Curriculum.
Participant preparation and presentation of content.
Discussion of best practices for training implementation.
Professional development maps that include learning outcomes and objectives.
Suggestions for how to deliver the instruction online based on our years of experience with distance learning.
Support for creating modules unique to your situation, if you are unable to deliver the materials as suggested by the IIRP.
Facilitated conversation about the integration of the IIRP materials with other initiatives.

When am I eligible to become a Restorative Practices Trainer?

The Restorative Practices Trainer program is for experienced restorative practitioners.

For Restorative Practices for Educators (formerly Introduction to Restorative Practices and Using Circles Effectively), individuals should have attended the relevant professional development and be well versed in restorative practices, including experience holding group discussions in a circle.

For Restorative Justice Conferencing (formerly Facilitating Restorative Conferences), individuals should have attended the relevant training, and we strongly suggest that you have participated in or facilitated a restorative conference prior to registering for the program.

During the Training of Trainers, attendees will be required to share their previous experiences with the group. There is no specific time frame developed by the IIRP to become a Restorative Practices Trainer, because readiness is dependent on personal experience, and timing will vary for each individual.
