Information
Details
We have created a dedicated Senior Trainer (ST) Training Workshop, focused entirely on what STs do and what you need. This replaces the old Points Tracking Sheet system — instead of tracking points, all STs will now attend an ST Training Workshop once every two years as their update requirement.
This workshop is a chance to come together with fellow STs, share experiences, and learn from each other. It covers your role and responsibilities, supporting MTs and instructors, running skill-builders in your region, and practical ideas you can take home. You will also be introduced to the new ST Update Summary Sheet — a simple record of your activities and contributions that replaces the old points system.
Requirements for New and Current Senior Trainers
SIPP-TCAFP
Senior Trainers are required to complete Self-paced Instructor Preparation Package - Tai Chi for Arthritis and Fall Prevention (SIPP-TCAFP) before attending.
Upon registration, you will receive a link to access SIPP-TCAFP for one year (valued at US$80) in your confirmation e-mail as part of your workshop fee.
