TRAIN THE TRAINER
In Train the Trainer with Mike Domitrz, you will discover a refreshing and powerful format to teaching leaders how to facilitate thought-provoking conversations, programs, and presentations on peer education, healthy intimacy, and/or sexual assault. A welcoming and positive atmosphere is fostered where each trainee discovers how to take a simple approach to tough questions from college students.
Throughout this customized workshop, you will discover how to handle difficult situations with male and female students – including how to discuss “both sides” of students’ concerns. You will learn the secret to creating a balance of careful and effective use of humor verses hard-hitting questions. Attendees will be challenged as to “how far” you should go to intervene in the day-to-day situations that can occur.
Everyone is encouraged to ask questions and debate the concepts being discussed. At the end of this incredibly interactive 45 minute session, your leaders will leave excited and equipped with the tools to make a powerful impact on your campus and in your community. Each person will be excited to speak out using their own new found approach to presenting difficult subject matter.
“Talk Back” Workshop
Want one more option? Host a “Talk Back” session AFTER the “Can I Kiss You?” program. This fun event has become popular on campuses. The sponsoring organizations have an AFTER EVENT Reception/Discussion where student leaders, faculty, staff, and audience members are invited to continue the conversation with Mike Domitrz on a more intimate level. After everyone grabs some food and beverages – then they sit down together and have an “Open Mic” to ask any questions they have for Mike. Questions will vary from “How do you know the right way to get your audience to react?” to “What is the key to using the humor you use?” to “How did you get started?” to “How does your sister feel about your work?“ to “What are other campuses doing based on this program?“ With the insight and passion Mike shares, participants leave inspired to take immediate action on your campus!

Customizing for Specific Audiences
Mike Domitrz is known for his ability to tailor each presentation to the needs of the students in attendance and within the framework of the campus’s standards. If your school has a unique culture or you would like Mike to present his program to a very specific body of students (Athletes, Greek Life, etc…), Mike will discuss all of your needs and wants — prior to his arrival at your school. Below are just a few examples of the audiences Mike customizes his program for:
- Religious Institutions
- Non-Traditional Students
- Greek Life (Fraternities & Sororities)
- Athletic Departments
- Residence Life
RELIGIOUS INSTITUTIONS One of the most common concerns for some religious institutions is whether certain sexual assault programming is appropriate according to their school’s beliefs and policies. Mike’s presentation is recommended by campuses of all religious standards (from the most liberal to the most conservative). Why? Mike’s entire approach is built around respect for one’s self and your partner. With regards to language and content, his program is considered one of the “cleanest” shows in the country. At the same time, he is one of the most entertaining and educational speakers in the college market! For this reason, Mike is highly sought-after by religious universities!
NON-TRADITIONAL STUDENTS The concepts shared by Mike in his programs are applicable to all levels of relationships (from a 1st date to a couple who has been married for over 20 years). With Mike being a working husband and father of 4 boys, non-traditional students relate to him and appreciate Mike’s honesty on communication, respect, and healthy relationships — including marriage.
GREEK LIFE Fraternities and Sororities rave about Mike’s entertaining and interactive approach. Greek Life students are frequently mandated to attend a certain number of sexual assault awareness events. In doing so, they often expect the presentations to be filled with boring statistics. Mike surprises them by using no statistics and by talking to each student as an equal. First, he gets them laughing and then he gets them to create positive change on their campus.
ATHLETIC DEPARTMENTS As a state championship coach and a collegiate athlete himself, Mike has a special talent of connecting with athletes. Instead of lecturing, Mike talks with athletes in a language they understand. He provides them with practical solutions and simple skills needed for each person to make positive changes — in their own life and in the lives of the people around them. He inspires athletes to take action that will create a safer community….while at the same time greatly improving the image of the athletic teams on campus. Plus, Mike is a listed speaker for the Health & Safety NCAA Speaker’s Grant. Call 800-329-9390 to learn more.
RESIDENCE LIFE Mike Domitrz works closely with your Residence Life department to create a tailored workshop for all levels of leadership (from Administration to Resident Directors to RAs to your residents). He will challenge your leadership to evaluate how they address healthy dating issues and how to build the most supportive atmosphere for survivors within your halls. His program is continually a hit at ACUHO-I’s International Convention each summer and has been written about in “Talking Stick.”
