REFUSE TO BE A VICTIM INSTRUCTORS AT ONE VOICE

Becoming a Refuse To Be A Victim® Instructor is an easy way to help your community!

Women and men interested in becoming Refuse To Be A Victim® instructors must attend a one- to two-day Instructor Development Workshop (IDW).

 IDWs are taught by Regional Counselors and concentrate on technical aspects of the program, instructor expectations, certification guidelines, developing speaking techniques and presentation skills, marketing seminars, etc.

After completing an IDW and receiving the Regional Counselor's endorsement, the required paperwork and fees are submitted to NRA and instructor credentials are issued.

Once certified, instructors are encouraged to schedule seminars in their communities for organizations, community groups, and companies, both proactively and in response to direct requests.
