Quality Training
In its 46th year, the Lakota Nations Education Conference has been offering quality educational training to Teachers, Parents, Paraprofessionals, Administration, School Boards, and all staff that serve Native American students.
The conference committee feels it is our responsibility as American Indian parents and educators to develop education settings (formal and informal)where cultural understandings (political, historical, literary, technological, financial, medical, legal, and others are not transmitted accidentally, but by design.
The conference is held in Rapid City, SD at the Ramkota Inn and is devoted to offering valuable information to the counselors, PE Teachers, School nurses, and other health staff.
The conference staff feel strongly that the needs of the "whole child" must be met. In an attempt to assist with this, LNEC will offer Trauma training. In addition, LNEC will be offering a variety of sessions dealing with all needs of the child.
The conference begins with a Pre-conference with three parts- A - B - C. Part A is School Funding and Finance with experts from Washington DC and the State of South Dakota. Part B covers the special needs in the classroom, and Part C will be the Mental Health First Aid Training to receive certification as a trainer.
Bus Driver Training is back! LNEC works to offer this CDL and safety training. Participants will receive preparation training and instructions on how to get the written test for achieving a CDL. Plans will be made with the participant to complete the driving test in the required 14 day waiting period. This training is held at Ramkota. Lunch is provided by the conference, and will be served in the Rushmore room. Full attendance is required at this training.
LNEC also offers specific training for School Boards and Administration. Also training in Federal and State Programs, and this year we include Secretarial training to our list.
Every effort is made to research and address the current needs of all parents and school staff. The coordinators of this conference, with over 65 years of combined experience, welcome advice and input as to the best topics to address each year.
