However, there’s a big difference between simply getting questionnaires completed and getting everything you can out of the tools. That difference comes down to training. Comprehensive training ensures the effectiveness of your screening program! ## Why training matters We talked to an ASQ® training expert about the importance of formal training and the different resources available that can help you and your staff use the tools with fidelity. “A lot of people approach screening tools as another task they have to do, another required form. And without training, they end up missing the great potential ASQ has—to be a structure that helps **promote developmental awareness** and guide conversations about their children, helping to **build relationships with families**,” says [Jane Farrell](https://products.brookespublishing.com/cw_contributorinfo.aspx?ContribID=3828&Name=Jane+Farrell+M.S.), a longtime ASQ Trainer and Early Intervention/Early Childhood Special Education Specialist at Early Childhood CARES in Lane County, Oregon. “However, we find that **after a training, people are much more inspired to think creatively about implementation**, and that they do a **much better job engaging with parents**.” ## Options to fit any budget, schedule, or level of expertise - the size of your program - how many staff use the tools - how experienced they already are - whether there are designated trainers on your team “When participants complete an ASQ Institute, they are often excited and motivated to expand their ASQ implementation to include more flexibility and more parent involvement,” says Jane Farrell. “Trainings promote participants’ creativity in how to use the ASQ tools as more of a proactive service to families—including **bridging communication about child development in a positive, strengths-based way**.” Learn more about each training option: [Virtual ASQ-3 & ASQ:SE-2 Comprehensive Institute](https://agesandstages.com/free-resources/articles/training-your-staff-on-asq/#comp) [Virtual ASQ-3 & ASQ:SE-2 Training of Trainers Institute](https://agesandstages.com/free-resources/articles/training-your-staff-on-asq/#tot) [ASQ Online Hands-On Learning Session](https://agesandstages.com/free-resources/articles/training-your-staff-on-asq/#online) * * * ### Virtual ASQ-3 & ASQ:SE-2 Comprehensive Institute New to ASQ-3 or ASQ:SE-2?
