OMA Fully Online Facilitator Training

The fully online training consists of three parts:

Part 1: Methodology Training: 12-15 hours self-paced with set goals. Completed within 4 weeks and includes weekly live sessions with OMA trainers and small group meet-ups.

Part 2: Art Making: These are live online sessions with OMA staff on the scheduled dates and times below. During these sessions, we will make OMA art using materials provided. 

Part 3: Observation & Debriefing (QIP only): Trainees schedule a web meeting with OMA staff where trainees conduct a mini OMA session and are virtually observed by OMA staff. After the observation, trainees and OMA staff engage in an online debriefing discussion. Dates and times will be determined individually.

*Completion of Parts 1 & 2 is required for all participants to become certified. QIP grantees must also complete Part 3.

**Partners from educational institutions who will be sending students to OMA sites and not actually leading OMA sessions are only required to complete parts (1) and (2) above.
