Ohio State LiFE Sports Teaching & Learning - Continuing Education

Continuing Education:
In addition to preparing current students to work in the field of youth development, the LiFE Sports Initiative also aims to provide ongoing educational experiences for professionals currently working in the field. These continuing education experiences are targeted toward those professionals currently working in a youth development setting such as a youth-serving non-profit agencies, afterschool programs, or youth sport and recreation programs.

The LiFE Sports Initiative provides a number of seminars designed to increase the skills of current youth workers already, working in the field. These seminars range in topic and are co-crafted with the youth organization to meet the needs of the particular agency and their staff. Past seminars have focused on: best practices in behavior management, sustainability, intentional programming, and strategic planning.

Below is a listing of past professional development sessions, with associated presentations:
