"Hands down amazing training! Highly effective in application aspects and in the ability of the participants to retain the materials."

About Training

Cambridge Agenda for Children Out-of-School Time has many years of experience in creating vibrant professional development opportunities for OST providers. We offer a wide variety of competency-based training. Participants are provided with active and engaging learning experiences to deepen their competencies in youth development work.  

• Training opportunities are free and open to anyone working with Cambridge youth in OST. 
• Certificates are available for all of our training
• We believe training is most effective when attended by a staff team of two or more, as well as the program leadership when possible.
• All new staff should attend introductory trainings to gain a shared understanding of practices associated with each topic.
