Can an organization skip Part Two and just contract for Part One of a training course?
No. Parts One and Two of a Triple P professional training course are both essential to skill mastery. Part One provides the course foundations and program content, with some skills practice. Part Two provides opportunities for more intensive practice with feedback, and is also part of the accreditation process as a Triple P provider. Understandably, everyone has a little apprehension about practicing skills in front of others. In actuality, participants find Part Two much easier and more beneficial than they imagined. The process is one of helping everyone in the group reach mastery criterion by the end of the day. Participants have reported not only that the experience is enjoyable and much less anxiety-provoking than they had envisioned, but also that they found Part Two even more valuable than Part One because they were able to consolidate all of their learning and see how everything fit together.
