Education, Training, & Consulting
As a leading author, writer, speaker and trainer on transgender and transsexual issues I have been invited to speak and provide trainings at corporations, colleges and universities, and conferences across the country. A full CV of my efforts, a description of my services, and a sample of my training approach is available for download here.
These pages will provide some video snippets of various trainings and talks I’ve done around the country over the past several years. Besides being good training materials themselves, they provide a good opportunity to get a sense of my approach, my style, and my abilities. The key to good training on a subject that can be as sensitive and as delicate as this is to engage and educate.
Additional portions of this training are available for viewing online at the HRC website (see them here)
