Program areas at Training Grounds
TGI was founded by Tom Brown, a community pioneer, and activist, who has positioned Training Grounds to be a hub for workforce-related needs. Mr. Brown, along with Marion Barry, co-founded the Ward 8 Workforce Development Council in 2007. He has embedded workplace principals into the Training Grounds teachings that empower participants to use transformational techniques to help them excel through life. Through the Four A's of Successful Corporate Citizenship, participants learn how to effectively assess circumstances and situations, adapt to workplace conditions, apply the concepts learned through TGI, and advance along in their career path.
