Teen STAR training sessions are aimed at adults who want to learn to talk about sexuality to their children, high school students, or volunteer youth groups.
- TeenSTAR™ training sessions do not require any prerequisites.
- These sessions provide the necessary knowledge and effective and proven educational tools that enable a group to be led and exchanges with young people.
- Facilitator training is provided by dedicated teams, trained and approved by TeenSTAR™ France, selected for their skills and experience in teaching TeenSTAR™ to young people. Certain theoretical contributions are provided by professionals in the field concerned.
The training is an enriching time from the point of view of the content and a convivial moment which allows to exchange with other people having the same desire. It is open to those who wish to acquire benchmarks and knowledge for the young people around them but also for those who would like to join a TeenSTAR™ team in their region and subsequently lead courses with young people.

Instructor Certification Process
Phase IA 6-week Online Introductory Course that addresses the following topics:
Each week includes a live video conference via Zoom as well as reading assignments and quizzes for each topic. This phase is can be taken as a "stand alone" course OR it may be used to move on to Phase II. Cost: $150 *$50 for returning Instructors that would like to take a refresher |
Phase IIA 2-day in-person or online workshop for those who have completed Phase I that addresses the Methodology and Pedagogy of Teen STAR™.
This course will introduce the Manuals and orient the future Instructor toward activities and ways in which to teach Teen STAR™. Please note: Teen STAR is a "relational" program and we will always give preference to the face-to-face workshops. However, as we are living in exceptional circumstances and we do not want to put instructor preparation on hold, we will be offering the online option if traveling and gathering in groups conditions continue to put your health at. Cost: $150 *$50 for returning Instructors that would like to take a refresher |
Phase IIIFor those who have completed Phase II and begin to teach, Phase III provides an "accompaniment" that continues to support and provide guidance and best practices to those that want to complete their Instructor Certification.
Includes a safe environment for instructors that work independently from institutions that have certified them in the subject. Cost: $100 |
