Virtual Dementia Tour® Training
Facilitator Training is required when you initially get the VDT® program, and teaches you how to set up and conduct the VDT for your staff or the general public. This training is available online or in-person with a VDT Certified Trainer. Most needs and goals for the VDT are met by getting the program, membership/license and facilitator training. Contact vdt@secondwind.org for details and pricing.
