--- Quote from: "seamus" ---UMMMM.....Lemme see 1.cause they work cheap
                                    2. cause they'll buy in,drink the cool-aid ,and not know any better.
                                    3. they cant be held accountable to any certifications or licences.

                                                                             Does that about cover it? :nods:

seamus knows the deal.  The rest of this thread is basically Whooter trying to avoid this axiom.

heretik:
Whooter, please show us an example of a employee record/file of all employees (staff) and their qualifications/credentials. Use one of your Aspen favorites. I will guarantee you will not find the lower paid staff (who actually do most of the day to day functions) on your list, properly bio'd.

Whooter:
Lets take another look:

Residential Program Example:

click  “Faculty & staff Bio’s”
Link
Even the guy who drives the van is listed.

Wilderness Program Example:

Link
Click at the bottom for "complete staff list"
Even the housekeeper is listed!


--- Quote from: "Dysfunction Junction" ---I have never, ever seen a single "Board Certified Counselor" and here you're claiming most wilderness programs have them backing up "licensed personnel"?  I call bullshit.
--- End quote ---

Read it and weep, DJ:

Leah is a Certified Counselor with the National Board of Certified Counselors, has a Masters of Science Degree in Community Counseling,


Well what do ya know...."Board Certified Counselors"

seamus:
Shit.....Maybe I should be a feild instuctor, I can see my bio now:


                                                                       Seamus, Earl of Donnybrook
                                         I am a graduate and former staff member of Straight inc, I attended university of Florida,majoring in Pre-med. Was an E.M.T./ Paramedic and Firefighter for 14 years, and a Police officer for 2.
I hold current certification as a wilderness 1st responder. I raced dogsleds ,in both sprint,and mid-distance. Have competed in summer biathalon,and shot IPSC as well. In my free time I enjoy reading,writing short stories,climbing , kayaking,cross-country skiing, fishing hunting and winter camping.I play 6 instruments,and ride horses as well. :roflmao:  :ftard:

DISCLAIMER: while seamus is guilty of more than occasional sarcasm,and general asshattery, he has absolutly no desire to be involved in ANY sort of program EVER, on any level.....PERIOD.....Its just not in me. Its not who I am.                                

 I have a buddy, who lives in another state who does give a voluntary demonstration of blacksmithing at a program about every 6 mos or so.He truly does it out of kindness.He says if he ever saw a bruised or battered kid there he'd "rat 'em out" in a hot minute.He says most of the kids are un-happy somehow and just kinda "killing time".

heretik:
Whooter, you really think we are that stupid and you are Oh, so smarrrrt. Most of those folks on that pretty brochure outside of academic teachers don't even work their full time, the mentors come and go often. Your wilderness program may have the storyteller or not and they may have the same staff or not. These jobs are notorious for turn over unless you are on the top where it pays. But you already knew this. I figured you would pick Swift. Nice try.
The children, Whooter.
Keep going Whooter, there are many more programs, not as pretty as Swift. You really have no morals at all.
