Upcoming StrongWomen Program Workshops

Lifting Women to Better Health

The StrongWomen Program

In order to be eligible for StrongWomen training, YOU MUST:
  1. Be an employee/staff with a nonprofit organization; independent personal trainers, consultants, and for-profit individuals/groups are not eligible to attend the training or to implement the StrongWomen Program. If you are not an employee/staff of a nonprofit BUT are working in partnership with a nonprofit organization to implement the program, you must submit a letter from the nonprofit organization as your sponsor. In addition, all leaders are required to sign a scope of use agreement regarding nonprofit use of the program only as well as an understanding that this is not a train-the-trainer program (you are being trained to implement programs and are not permitted to train new trainers).

  2. Be actively strength training. Being physically active in general is, of course, important. But, the expectation is that you are very familiar with lifting weights and are personally committed to and regularly practicing the behavior. This is a mandatory criteria for eligibility.

  3. Have a firm commitment to starting a program in your community. This training is to teach you how to lead a StrongWomen Program, and should not be attended simply for informational/personal purposes.
