What Our Participants Say
“The most meaningful portions of this experience have been the opportunities to put into practice what we’ve been learning. We’ve broken off into small groups and practiced aspects of the narrative training approach. And we’ve gotten feedback from people which has been really valuable.” - Rachel, 2022
“Coming to this training together allowed me the opportunity to bounce ideas off of my colleague.” - Jamal and Heaven, 2022
“I am critically engaged and asked to reflect along the way where most conferences your only reflection is an assessment at the end.” - Terrian, 2022
“The fact that they’re not just teaching experiential learning but they’re doing that through experiential learning… I can already see how the learning will be different and more enriched by following this method.” - Sarah, 2022
“What was really unique about this experience is that we didn’t just go through the narrative approach to facilitation but we also experienced it with some of our deeper dives… like identity exploration components that helped us see how and who we are in order to apply that to our facilitation.” - Robin, 2022
“I have grown professionally… looking at facilitation from a different lens. Not as a professor in a classroom being so much more conventional but making a deliberate or intentional decision to facilitate.” - Nicole, 2022
“I’ve definitely grown and gotten out of my comfort zone through this program.” - Justin, 2022
“Not only did we leave with hands-on practical resources and experiences but we also built a community.” - Jagan, 2022
“I think you’re going to get so much more out of this training than you ever thought you possibly could.” - Erica, 2022
“The Leadership Trainer Certification Program is so important because these are things that you don’t necessarily naturally have. You’re not born knowing how to train or lead others in many cases. People are more effective if they a strategy or framework to work from. We utilize the narrative framework and guide folks through the different stages of that framework and then give them hands-on tactical skills that they can then apply in their own settings.” - Sarah, 2022 Master Trainer
“I wanted to be a part of this because this is such a unique program. There are very few, if any, leadership trainer opportunities. Most of the time we are learning to be great leaders.. but we aren’t learning how to facilitate workshops… the unique skillsets and tools and framework to actually facilitate really good leadership training opportunities.” - Chantelle, 2022 Master Trainer
“With the narrative approach and experiential learning you get to see real-time application of what folks learn and that’s the difference with Leadership Trainer.” Daymyen, 2022 Master Trainer
“This experience has been completely transformational for me.” - Erika, 2019
“I was never a confident person and [others] could feel that during day 1 and day 2… but now, I absorbed so much knowledge from this experience that I feel it and I know that I can use it every single day.” - Reba, 2019
“This has been quite a life changing experience for me. We learned so much not only about how to train others, but about ourselves and our leadership skills.” - Flor, 2019
“Honestly this is the best training I have ever been to.” - Wanda, 2019
“It was fun. It was challenging. We felt because of the challenge the need to rely on each other so there was a lot of connection and networking that happened and I really think that I’m leaving here today with new, strong, long lasting friendships.” - Six, 2019
“We live in a climate now where we keep waiting for someone to come in and rescue us… but I think what I’ve learned the most is that I go back to my community and it starts with me.” - Habibah, 2019
“I am leaving more authentic, more self-reflective.” - Aura, 2019

Our Beautiful Location
Retreat on Charleston Peak
The Retreat on Charleston Peak is an elegant rustic lodge elevated 6,700ft in the Kyle Canyon and located 45-minutes away from the Las Vegas Strip. We purposefully selected this location due to its picturesque mountain-side location ideal for our intentional, immersive, and intimate trainer preparation experience. More, it is a short drive away from the world-class destination of Las Vegas, Nevada. For those traveling from afar, Leadership Trainer provides *complimentary* airport and Las Vegas Strip pick-ups/drop-offs!
The grounds provide the perfect mix of indoor and outdoor reflective spaces. The natural environment includes mountain and peak vistas, hiking trails, and views of Las Vegas. Although our retreat is only for two days, we will certainly be taking advantage of this incredible location. (*Participants are welcome to arrange longer stays by arriving early and staying beyond the scheduled Program.*)
Fill out the form and we'll be in touch!
