Interested in learning more? Give us a call to chat! The next step after an initial phone call is to complete an application. When we have the need for more facilitators, we will invite you in for an interview. (typically we onboard new facilitators every 2-3 years) After the interview if we both decide to move forward we would complete a reference and background check.
