Counselor in Leadership Training Program
CILT Program
Corporate Kids Events (CKE), our new conference childcare company, has a unique program that is available for up to 5 teenagers (ages 15-17) who would like to gain vaulable experience and training in working with and supervising children: Counselor in Leadership Training (CILT). You will work with professionals from CKE in a variey of areas in the camps. You will get the most out of this if you commit to participating in the CILT program for the entire childcare program (2-1/2 days). We require a minimum commitment of at least one full day. Participants will receive a certificate of completion of the program, along with the number of hours they participated.
All teens that in the CILT Program receive the following:
-
Valuable training during the pre-event staff orientation.
-
Hands-on experience with the kids. Each CILT will be assigned to work with a CKE staff member who is working with a particular age group of children.
-
A staff manual for reference while working with children in the future.
-
Team building instruction. A Corporate Kids Events Certified Team Building Instructor, will lead the teens in fun team-building exercises. These help to promote problem solving and communication skills, cooperation, self-esteem and group unity.
-
A Certificate of Completion for the CKE Counselor in Leadership Training Program. This certificate can and has been used by many teens to obtain employment in the childcare industry or towards community service hours.
To be considered for the CILT Program, the interested teenager must submit contact information (Name, date of birth, address, phone numbers, email address), a list of their school and extra-curricular activities and a one-page (maximum) explanation of why she or he would like to participate in the program.
