About this event

  • Event lasts 7 hours

I am a Teenager, Get Me Into There by Curious Minds is here to empower you with the specialised skills and support you need to ensure teens feel welcome in your workplace.

This day-long course, led by expert trainers, has been designed to enable people working in front of house or public facing roles to understand the teenage experience and feel more confident in their interactions with young people.

If you engage with young people at cultural and place-based venues, this program is designed just for you.


What to expect

The course delves into brain science, interpersonal dynamics, and lifelong attitudes toward creativity and curiosity.

Drawing insights from two flagship youth engagement programs delivered by Curious Minds, participants will gain insights into the motivations behind teenage behaviour, enabling better anticipation of their needs and effective communication.

This training is active and action-focused. It will help you come up with practical, manageable changes you can make to encourage more teenagers to come in!
