However, members of this teams, to the best of my knowledge, have never undertaken formal training for this role</div><div><br></div><div>By having this training undertaken by members of the community of various Linux Australia conferences, we can seed the knowledge of how to take the next step in ensuring active attendee safety at Linux Australia events. </div><div><br></div><div>Note: this training is one of two training session offered. A “Train the Trainers” session is is a separate course, quote and additional grant request pending, which would allow attendees of both sessions to then have the knowledge to train their own Conduct teams. This would allow for a larger pool of trained persons to attend more events and be a part of more Conduct teams. </div><div><br></div><div>## Success</div><div><br></div><div>Attendees undertaking training will be able to take the skills learnt and CC-BY materials provided and use them to ensure their own events have trained Incident Response members who can serve on Conduct teams in order to ensure attendee safety. </div><div><br></div><div>Attendees have also been chosen as they are “serial conference attendees”, so their skills can be of service across a number of events for years to come. </div><div><br></div><div>## Costs Breakdown</div><div><br></div><div>The training is as follows: </div><div><br></div><div>Name: Code of Conduct Incident Response</div><div>Provider: Otter Technologies</div><div><a href="https://otter.technology/code-of-conduct-training/" target="_blank">https://otter.technology/code-<wbr>of-conduct-training/</a></div><div><br></div><div>Cost:<b> $3,500 USD</b> for up to 10 attendees in one remote session</div><div><br></div><div><i>Note: the training can have up to 14 attendees, but 8 - 10 is the normal size of groups.
