The AAP has developed trainings to provide those participating in TEAMS, school health staff and related health professionals with an opportunity to review school health topics with their team. These trainings are intended to be facilitated by school and other health professionals to provide training and encourage discussion in short 15-20 minute presentations. Each training consists of presenter slides and facilitator speakers notes. These materials can be presented anywhere from team meetings to professional development opportunities.
