Our Training History & Programs
Pinnacle Training and Publishing, LLC (PTP) has specialized in training, prevention, and empowerment for over 25 years. Our training consulting staff has over 50 years of experience designing and implementing these types of programs. We provide behavior modification training and consultation in critical thinking skills and life/social skills for adults and youth. Our training offers answers to life’s tough situations; shows how to improve deficient, negative behaviors; and provide more options for difficult decision-making.
As stated earlier, our training methods have a successful, documented 25-year-old track record. These methods have been thoroughly tested and proven by tens of thousands of adults and youth through our local schools, courts (juvenile and adult), jails, prisons, churches, community centers, organizations, and businesses.
Interwoven throughout our training and strategic planning processes is the concept of demonstrating critical thinking skills to participants from ages 5 to 70+, and from different racial and social status groups.
