Please be sure to review all pertinent presentations.  We ask that you also complete the on-line survey, so that you may provide us feedback about this training.  Your input is important to us, as we make improvements to our training program and plan for future training.

If you are seeking Professional Development Hours (PDHs), please be sure to view all presentations. Afterward, select the PDH Credit button. You will then be directed to the on-line exam. Please answer all questions and complete the survey. You must receive an 80% or better to receive credit. Once you submit both, we will process your request. Your completion records will be forwarded to the State Board.
