Teachers should schedule a Young AmeriTowne Teacher Orientation or watch a Refresher webinar at least two months prior to attending Young AmeriTowne. Teacher Orientations are included with the cost of program registration.
Teacher Orientations – New Teachers
Teachers new to the AmeriTowne program are required to attend a Teacher Orientation. These four-hour sessions provide critical information about the mechanics of the Young AmeriTowne program and classroom materials. Reserve your spot at least two weeks prior to the Orientation date.
Sessions are conducted at Young Americans Center for Financial Education, 3550 E. First Ave., Denver, CO 80206. Please park in the parking garage attached to the building (entrance on Monroe). Light snacks and beverages are provided. Bring your whole team and use the day as a planning session!
To reserve your spot, contact Jeremy Ollie: jollie@yacenter.org.
Refresher Webinar – Returning Teachers
Returning teachers are strongly encouraged to either attend a Teacher Orientation or watch a Refresher webinar to learn about important updates. Webinars are updated each August.
