Agency Training

The Agency Training option is available to agencies and organizations that wish to book a training exclusively for their team. Training options are available either online via Zoom or in-person at the agency or at Toronto Hostels Training Centre.

The Training Centre provides a multitude of courses in a wide range of subject areas! Please view the workshop descriptions, learning objectives and bios detailed in the Course Calendar to learn more. To start the process of booking an agency training for your team, please send the following information laura@thtcentre.com:
