Staff development and training ensures EFNEP is effective, efficient, and accountable. EFNEP's paraprofessional model succeeds when peer educators have adequate training, support, and supervision. Competencies and training programs for peer educators have been developed to support their success.
Collection of resources to support EFNEP staff in their respective roles:
- Core Competencies - EFNEP and SNAP-Ed (NIFA)
- National Nutrition Certification Program - Food Sense (Utah State)
- EFNEP Staff Development and Training (NIFA)
- EFNEP Paraprofessional Training Archive - collection of previous staff development and training materials used in EFNEP.
EFNEP also supports program administrators with New Coordinator Guide, EFNEP Paraprofessional Supervision handbook, and periodic trainings.
The EFNEP Coordinators conference is also a great source of professional development and peer knowledge sharing. Conference archives can found in the Archives resource set (prior to 2018) and on sched.com (2018 - present).
