The Amer-I-Can Program operates within the structure of peer group relationships. The training methodology includes the following three strategies:
1) Dual Sensory Perception - Audio and visual aids are used to assist trainees with learning disabilities or impairments. Trainees listen to cassette tapes while simultaneously reading the curriculum material.
2) Controlled Group Discussion - Each participant is allotted time to comment without interruption; group members may comment on what was previously said or offer new subjects for discussion.
3) Space Repitition - Lessons are presented up to three (3) times during the course to ensure comprehension and maximum retention.
