CCAR Facilitators

CCAR continues to monitor our ability to train in-person due to the pandemic and restrictions for social distancing.  Given the uncertainty of when we maybe be able to offer in-person training we are allowing trainers of our curriculum to take their training online, via a platform such as Adobe Connect, Zoom, etc.  Regardless of delivering in person or online or blended* (hybrid) - all trainings must adhere to established contact hours.

*In the training registration form – you will now see an option for “blended” – which tells us some portions of the training will be conducted person and some portions will be conducted virtually. We have also added a couple of other fields that will help us to differentiate the dates and times for the in-person dates and the dates and times for the virtual portion.  Please note that we do not allow people to observe an in person class, virtually, for credit.

PROTRAXX LOGIN / FACILITATORS INFO PAGE

Given the demand and need to be certification board compliant we have begun implementing an online professional development platform called PROTRAXX to track all registrations, enrollment, attendance and CEU awards.  This new platform will help to eliminate fraud, and the need to utilize a separate platform/database (surveymonkey) for certificates/evaluations. It is the role of all trainers to understand this process so you may support your participants so they are registered and enrolled accurately.

LATE ORDERS/REGISTRATION

As always, all orders/registrations for upcoming classes must be received three (3) weeks in advance of the first day of training - no exceptions.  If you are placing your order or registering your class later than the three week guideline, please include this late fee in your order.  Manual orders received after that time frame, may be subject to additional shipping fees.  Per the agreement, all Facilitators need to inform CCAR anytime a training is scheduled by completing a registration form.  Because Protraxx requires participants to be registered and enrolled in advance, we will be enforcing this three week deadline.  Failure to do so could result in rescheduling your training as planned.

NEW TEMPLATES FOR YOUR USE

We now have Master Flyer Templates for your use.  Please plan to use these with your next training as this will simplify the process of reviewing flyers when authorizing your trainings.  These flyers are available in word or PDF.   There is space for your information, logos, etc.  Let us know if you have questions.

CCAR TRAINING MANUALS ON AMAZON.COM

We are pleased to announce!  Given the need for people to continue to train virtually, you may now offer participants the option of purchasing their own manual through Amazon.

What to do if a participant misses class?

Due to the fast pace in which we cover modules in the CCAR Training Programs, and how experiential the learning environment is designed, it is extremely hard to make up time, be it a day of missed class, or a few hours.  As each case is different when someone misses a class/portion of the day, we offer the following guidelines:

• If the participant and trainer are aware of the absence ahead of time, and it means missing a day, or even a portion of the day, it is best for the participant to withdraw from the training and attend a future offering.
• If the participant misses a day/portion of the class that is unplanned (illness, car trouble, etc.) it in encouraged that the participant attend the portion they missed at a future offering.  If the time missed is less than two hours (late arrival due to unforeseen circumstances) and you feel you can effectively deliver the materials missed which would include the added perspectives/experiential opportunity, you may do so.  Please note: The time spent should be equal to the hours missed.  (e.g. Missing two hours, means spending two hours with the individual.) 

As we do not offer partial CEUs it is essential all participants complete these trainings as outlined in full.  There are no exceptions.  As we are an approved provider for the training of recovery coaches worldwide, it is our responsibility as CCAR Authorized Facilitators to cover the materials contained in a program in the time specified so the CEU award is valid. (e.g. RCA is 30 Hours of exposure to materials/content).

If you have any concerns or would like guidance on, please connect with a team member or email cart@ccar.us.

Minimum for Classes?

Due to the experiential design of our curriculum, it is strongly recommended that the class size of any CCAR Training be no less than 8 people.  Each activity is designed with some sort of group process for the value of the added perspectives that each individual brings to the training.  In turn, the timing outlined for each module provides for that dynamic discussion.  The CCAR Training programs are not lectures and rely on the diverse perspectives of the groups to enrich the transformative process we promise.

For those reasons we believe that an ideal size for a class is 12-24. 

We may ask for your rationale if this guideline is not followed, especially if we notice small class size is a regular occurence.

If you need extra manuals, or are looking to order a large volume of manuals, please reach out to maysha@ccar.us.

Effective January 3, 2022, in order for a facilitator to have a future training registered with CCAR, all past attendance records must be completed/up-to-date. Please check “Activity Class Management” within your instructor portal of your ProTraxx account (http://www.protraxx.com/) to ensure that all of your Attendance Statuses are marked Complete. This would include 1.) Checking the roster to make sure everyone that attended your training is on your attendance list and 2.) Marking all days as either “Attended” or “Did Not Attend” for each participant, as a “Not Recorded” status would not complete attendance. Your attendance should be highlighted in green and say “Attendance Complete”. If your attendance is in red and says “Attendance Incomplete”, that means something is missing.

If you find that your training is marked as Incomplete in error or if a training that is marked Incomplete was cancelled, please let me know as soon as possible.

In order to better assist with questions and concerns surrounding this, I will be holding virtual office hours during the following dates and times:

• Thursday, December 16^th from 4pm-5pm Eastern
• Monday, December 20^th from 9:30am-10:30am Eastern
• Thursday, December 30^th from 12pm-1pm Eastern
• Monday, January 3^rd from 3pm-4pm Eastern

You can join the Zoom Office Hours here:
