Resources and guidance are provided here to help STP instructors understand their responsibilities in delivering training.

  • There is no approval process for STP instructors. Many STP instructors are field personnel with instructional training, seasoned superintendants or project managers, qualified human resource directors, or others within the firm.

  • An STP Instructor Training Workshop is offered one to two times a year to provide skills essential to effectively instruct STP courses—specifically how to teach adult learners, encourage interaction among STP participants, and use the STP manuals to prepare and deliver a course.

    Although not required, participants also learn how to incorporate visual aids into the curriculum and get the most out of the instructor materials. Each workshop participant has an opportunity to give a presentation, test newly learned skills, and receive constructive feedback.

  • All instructors must use the most current edition of the Instructor’s Guide and the PowerPoint presentation provide within that guide.

  • Following the course, the original, hard copy Participant’s Registration and Course Evaluation forms for each participant (found in the back of the Participant’s Manuals) must be signed by the instructor and mailed to AGC of America for participant’s course completion to be entered into the AGC Nationwide Curriculum Database.

    Course administrators/instructors should also email, in Microsoft Excel format to curriculum@agc.org following the completion of the course. This roster will be used, in addition to the Participant Registration and Evaluation forms, to verify contact and completion information.

  • Each class must be facilitated using AGC’s course materials, including each participant having their own Participant’s Manual, the course materials being presented in their original format, and each course being held to their intended duration.

  • Learn more about when STP units are being updated or any questions or suggestions other instructors have on the course material here.
