NSDTA sponsors an annual professional development institute that brings together many human services trainers and training management staff members, as well as university partners, who participate in a variety of workshops, seminars, and other networking opportunities. These Institutes have proven to be excellent vehicles for human services training professionals to learn about the latest information, research, techniques, equipment, and materials used in the management and delivery of training and staff development. NSDTA believes the opportunity to attend its Institutes should be shared with as many human services training professionals as possible, but it also recognizes that many agencies simply may not have the funds necessary to send staff. To that end, NSDTA has decided to offer the opportunity to apply for a scholarship to attend our annual Institute. These scholarships are being named for Joan Carrera, a pioneer in staff development and training from HHS, and a true friend, mentor, and inspiration to NSDTA.
