Happy New Year, everyone!

We have a busy training schedule coming up! ***The Incredible Years® (IY)*** programs are [**evidence-based**,](https://incredibleyears.com/research-library/) and we highly encourage anyone considering implementing an IY program to attend a training by one of our Certified Trainers. These are called [**Group Leader Trainings**](https://incredibleyears.com/workshop-info/training-descriptions/), and are typically 3 days long. The Group Leader Training is **highly experiential** – participants learn all about the [**program methodologies**](https://incredibleyears.com/about/incredible-years-series/) and they practice many of the different concepts in order to receive **feedback** from the trainer.

We host a number of group leader trainings here in **Seattle, WA** each year. Below, find information on two of our [upcoming Group Leader Trainings](https://incredibleyears.com/workshop-info/training-workshop-schedule/). Space fills up fast – let us know as soon as possible if you hope to attend!
