Character First! Education Training
For a community-wide character initiative to succeed, it must reach into the schools and provide students with positive motivation.
The Character First! Education program and curriculum enables school staff and students to enhance the effectiveness of education, help students understand the role of character in their success, and provide resources and tools for school administrators and teachers to use as they develop a culture of good character in their institutions.
Across the nation and around the world, teachers, parents, and principals have reported the difference character is making in the lives of their students.
- Increased student cooperation

Share the vision for character education with the entire faculty through faculty in-service training. This training equips your staff to begin and maintain a character emphasis.
Involve the community in your character emphasis. Volunteer training gives practical ways for high school mentors and others in the community to encourage character in elementary-age students.
