Planning Tool
The purpose of this document is to help administrators plan the costs
of implementing the Incredible Years Programs in a manner that assures
high integrity and a quality program delivery.
Also available as an Excel Spreadsheet (right-click and
save; Mac click, command)
A. One-Time Only Initial Cost of Leader Training and Materials

delivered
-
Seattle Training: $400 for 3-day and $300 for 2-day training $400 x
# of group leaders plus travel costs (transportation, lodging, meals,
etc.).
Suggestion: budget $1100-$1500 per leader to be trained in Seattle
Or,
-
On-Site Training: $1500-$2000 per day for trainer x 3-4 days (this will
be cost effective if you have more than 8-10 leaders but we don’t
always have trainers available) plus travel and hotel expenses,
workshop handouts and books, etc.

-
Agency or school may purchase one set of tapes to be shared by
multiple group leaders (approximately $1000-$1300 per series)

groups (or ask leaders to pay their own certification fee)
Note: amount of time to prepare for group sessions will be longer

the third time this preparation time will be minimized considerably and
costs will be reduced.
