“The Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group gives me the ability to interact, share, and learn from fellow business owners who have the same problems and challenges that I face as an entrepreneur on a daily basis. The group helps me to set goals and an action plan for my business, and then holds me accountable for achieving those goals.”

Mark Drager - Phanta Media
“As an Entrepreneur, who do you turn to for advice? Family members? Friends? Ex Co-workers? In most cases they don't understand the challenges I'm facing because they haven't been there. The Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group is made up of Entrepreneurs who HAVE been there – they've faced the challenges that lay ahead of me and through shared camaraderie will help me overcome them.”

Kris Schantz - Happy Worker
“The Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group is a cross between a league of entrepreneurial superheroes and a no-nonsense support group. My own strengths and weaknesses are checked by my group mates, who actively support and motivate me to meet my targets, be a better entrepreneur and a better person. Before I joined the group I was a 150-pound business weakling… now look at me! Beefcake. Beefcake!!”

Raye Ackerman - ITS Dispatch
"Since becoming involved with the Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group, it has truly been an eye opening experience to see that other business owners like myself, are struggling with the same daily challenges. Our group is quite balanced and we have some members that have already dealt with many of my current issues and offer great input and advice on how to work through them. Ultimately, the group acts as a great motivator to keep me on track and accountable for financial targets and to ensure that issues that I plan on dealing with are dealt with... (No later than the next meeting!)"

Dr. Anna B. Baranowsky - Traumatology Institute
"As a Clinical Psychologist, my background did not provide me with any business training. In the Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group I have found a tremendous resource of people who are willing to discuss all aspects of running a business. There is such diversity among the members who range in their professions as well in the development of their businesses. So we all learn about every stage of business development and the idea generation for complex problems is an enjoyable and worthwhile exercise every time. Bravo Evan for putting together such an terrific program."

Steven Albiani - The Haunn Group
"TheToronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group has to date has been a positive experience for me and my business to be a part of. It is rare to have the opportunity to meet on a regular basis with individuals that share the same passion for building something beyond themselves. The group has given me a network to critically think about opportunities and issues providing a proactive approach to my business strategy. I appreciate being held accountable for the goals that I set in my business by the group because the end result is seeing those come to fruition quicker."

Alfredo Arias - Flash Fog Security

About The Traumatology Institute

Crises and traumatic events, including acts of violence and terrorism, accidents, and natural disasters are being reported in the media on a daily basis. Fortunately, there is an increased recognition of the suffering associated with such events and a growing awareness of how to respond with sensitivity and effectiveness to assist and empower individuals and communities in need. This Traumatology Institute offers training programs that provides theoretical knowledge, and practical skill-development and opportunities that highlight "best practices" in trauma intervention.

In 1995, under the direction of Charles R. Figley, Ph.D., renowned trauma expert, the original Traumatology Institute (TI) was established at Florida State University with a mission to alleviate trauma around the world through research, education and service. The Green Cross Projects (GCP), a humanitarian branch of the TI, was created to provide rehabilitative assistance to victims of disasters. The GCP were there to respond to the survivors of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.

By 1998, the Traumatology Institute (Canada) was established by Dr. Anna B. Baranowsky in continuation of this important work. It was at this point that the independent curriculum currently being offered was developed and enhanced by Dr. Baranowsky and Dr. Eric Gentry. This comprehensive curriculum leads to competency and certification in Traumatology and Compassion Fatigue. The Traumatology Institute Training Curriculum provided foundational training for those Certified Traumatologists involved in recovery interventions for over 4,700 persons following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in New York City.

The mandate of the Traumatology Institute (Canada) is:

1. To improve and maintain standards in the field of trauma response;
2. To offer certificate training programs that meet the needs of specific communities; and
3. To link with partners nationally and internationally to offer the Institute’s cutting-edge curriculum.

The Institute’s certifying body is the Academy of Traumatology’ Commission on Certification & Accreditation (COCA). Training programs are also recognized by the American Academy of Experts in Traumatic Stress (AAETS). Students successfully completing the curriculum can apply for COCA and AAETS designation under special rates & practices.
