Training trainers to lead leaders
Dr. Michelle Eley, Extension’s community and economic development specialist, has put together a one-day training program for members of county Extension staffs interested in using the “Community Voices leadership development curriculum with local groups. Eley’s “Building a Base of Trained Leaders program will give Extension personnel the tools and background information for passing along the self-directed “Community Voices training modules to community-action groups and grassroots organizations. “Community Voices has often been a starting point for groups eager to have their opinions heard on local issues.
Eley will be offering “Building a Base of Trained Leaders at the:
• Vernon James Research and Extension Center in Plymouth, on Tuesday, Aug. 23, from 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
• Guilford County Extension Center on Monday, Aug. 29, from 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
• Broyhill Conference Center in Boone on Tuesday, Sept. 6, from 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
To register for any of the three “Community Voices training programs via Extension’s interim Learning Management (iLS) system, start at

The training is primarily set up for field staff; however, a few community volunteers/organizers have requested the training since the announcement has gone out. I am making arrangements for them to attend one of the upcoming sessions. If you know any community volunteers who are interested in Community Voices training, please contact me directly at mleley@ncat.edu.
