How Agencies are Using the
Training & Resource Platform
New Employee Training
Used as a solution for new staff training until live trainings are available. With individual access and self-paced learning tools, new employees will have the knowledge they need to do their work.
Group Trainings
Used as a tool to guide live group trainings. Trainers share the video lessons, which include the regulations and sample of what this might look like in practice. After each lesson the trainer discusses how the regulation is implemented within their agency.
Refresher and/or Updates
Used as a tool when an employee needs a refresher as it relates to a specific regulation. In addition, used as a tool to easily adjust and educate staff when there are updates to the regulations. The primary goal is for agencies to have a strong foundation.
