The
A.T.I. Story
Martin and Maryln formed
the Appelbaum Training Institute in 1989. A.T.I. has become our nation's
most successful company that provides teacher training.
The organization
has grown to meet the ever-expanding needs of the child care and teaching
community. As each state developed expanding regulations for their child
care providers, the Appelbaums met those regulatory needs. New child
care staff seminars and child care management seminars were developed.
Self-Instructional materials that gave Continuing Education Units were
written to meet the requirements and regulations for teachers. New cities
and states were entered into the training circle. Books, audio tapes,
and child care resources were developed and are continually being expanded
to serve the needs of the educational community.
Soon, the organization
added seminars and in-services for elementary, middle, and high school
teachers. These seminars became so popular that the Appelbaums had to
hire other speakers to assist in reaching all their requests to provide
seminars. The primary focus of these seminars are topics that teachers
all want: discipline and guidance, inclusion, guided reading, and other
relevant topics.
During any given
week, the organization provides dozens of seminars throughout the United
States and Canada. They have provided seminars, workshops, in-services,
and self-instructional materials for more than one million individuals
in the United States, as well as abroad.
