The changes brought on with the agency's restructuring, rebranding, and the website overhaul have affected the TTA we provide to our grantees and sponsors. As the target audience for the training we develop, grantees and sponsors can offer valuable feedback so AmeriCorps can improve both the trainings and our internal training development processes.
