Workshop Leader Requirements and Online Training Applications The OMI is committed to training Oklahomans who have a strong desire to positively impact families. In order to truly affect the marriages and relationships in our state, OMI workshop leaders need to be highly motivated and good presenters with a commitment to the work of strengthening families. The expenses of the training seminar, training materials and workshop delivery materials are provided free of charge by the Department of Human Services. Continuing education units are available for a variety of licensures for approximately 18 hours of credit including LBP, LMFT, LPC, LCSW and Licensed Psychologists. The OMI offers training in two curricula: the Prevention and Relationship Enhancement Program (PREP), which targets couples in a workshop setting; and Within My Reach (WMR), which targets singles. The training requirements and online applications for each training are located under the section header of each curriculum below. Prevention and Relationship Enhancement ProgramPotential PREP Workshop Leaders must complete an application outlining their proposed plans for delivering a minimum of four free workshops to the community or target population group. Attendance to training is subject to review and approval of this plan by OMI staff. PREP training is a total of four days in length, with the initial three days facilitated by the curriculum developers. The OMI also requires an additional day of training. This "Teach Back Day" allows facilitators to further enhance facilitation skills, practice their presentations, and ask questions about implementation.
