What is a Certified Parenting Instructor?

One can search the web and purchase some excellent material and begin teaching parenting workshops.  The International Network for Children and Families (INCAF) goes a step further.  It requires educators to take a rigorous 40 hour training program.  INCAF is one of the only organizations that require their instructors to obtain and maintain their certification.  Eileen has been certified by INCAF since 2002.
