Trainer's Lounge Access Fee

TLCPCP is an all volunteer organization that depends on the gifts, talents and financial support of those in our community in order to operate. We strive to keep our annual participation fee asd low as possible to make it affordable for all and to encourage all of us to fully participate. The current fee is $25 and is required of all trainers as a part of maintaining their status as certified TLCPCP trainers in good standing. We set this fee policy and amount based on public discussions with all community members. We implement the policy in the hopes of maximizing trainer participation and minimizing the annual cost.

The following are the benefits that each trainer will receive:
