There is a seventh required training for certified employees for the 2021-2022 academic year:
MANDT Training
The training Building Positive Relational Skills is no longer required for all teachers and support staff but is part of the annual training for special education teachers and special education paraprofessionals, who take a paper-and-pencil test at their training. The online training with its simpler online quiz is available for others who can benefit from training on reducing workplace violence through positive behavioral supports.
Confirmations
You will receive an email from Google Forms with your results for each training. So if you cannot remember if you did a training this academic year, search in Gmail for "Alcohol Google Forms" or "Bloodborne Google Forms" etc. and if you completed a training you should see an email from Google Forms that begins, "Thanks for filling out 2021-2022 X Training" with your results. Periodically ESC staff update Frontline Professional Growth to record completed trainings.
Other State Requirements
