The goal of HealthSmart is to promote the healthy growth and development of youth and give them the knowledge and skills to make healthy choices and establish life-long healthy behaviors.

ETR provides a research-based approach to our professional learning processes. This includes the provision of pre-work (in order to prime the participants so they have the background and content information needed to fully engage in skill-building), in-person skill-building, and follow-up implementation support. ETR offers a variety of training options for HealthSmart Users:

  • For new implementers, we offer a Self-Paced Orientation to familiarize educators with the HealthSmart platform and research base. Educators with an online account to HealthSmart can take the self-paced orientation to learn the basics and help become familiar with the program.

  • For a more in-depth look at HealthSmart, we can provide a 1.5 to 3-hour live virtual training for educators, including a curriculum demonstration and other tools and tricks for utilizing HealthSmart.

  • For seasoned implementers or those looking for additional training, we provide a variety of topical training aligned to each of the content areas of HealthSmart and several overarching skill-building training areas. Each training is 90 minutes and can be combined to create a virtual professional development experience. Training prices start at $1,000 per 90-minute session or $1,500 for two 90-minute sessions.
