Quality Training

In its 43rd 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 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 feels 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.   

In the second year, Student Leadership Training will be offered again. This training is for middle school students. Training covers a variety of topics that apply to students in 2021. Mentoring, how to handle a bully, how to help a friend in need, suicide identification, and skills for dealing with friends that exhibit suicidal activities. 

Bus Driver Training is back! LNEC works with Western Dakota Tech to offer this CDL and safety training. Participants will receive training and 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 the Western Dakota Campus. Transportation can be provided from the Ramkota to the Campus each morning. Lunch is provided by the conference, and will be served in the classroom. Transportation can be provided back to the Ramkota Inn at the end of the day. 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 add Financial training to our list. How to start a business, how to write a grant, how to balance a checkbook and keep a household budget on track. 

Every effort is made to research and address the current needs of all parents and school staff. The coordinators of this conference, with over 50 years of combined experience, welcome advice and input as to the best topics to address each year.
