Foundational Tracks
All logged-in users except Direct Care users are auto-certified and receive course completion certification once all lessons in the respective course are complete. Direct Care staff members require a Training & Curriculum Specialist or Program Manager to certify approval of each lesson and course completed.
Focused Topics Track
Registered ³Ô¹ÏÍø users may earn certification in every Focused Topic course. For all logged-in users, lessons are auto-certified upon successful completion of the Demonstrate questions. All registered ³Ô¹ÏÍø users must successfully complete the Focused Topic's End of Course Assessment to earn course certification, except for the Social Emotional Learning for Teachers (SELF-T) course, which is Self-Certified.
Depending on the enrolled course and the user’s role, Focused Topics courses are either ³Ô¹ÏÍø Assessed, with an End of Course Assessment (EOCA) containing only multiple-choice questions that are automatically evaluated by the ³Ô¹ÏÍø system, or TCS Assessed, with an EOCA containing a combination of multiple-choice and short answer questions that must be reviewed and certified by a direct care user’s Training & Curriculum Specialist or Program Manager, or Self-Certified. When the EOCA is ³Ô¹ÏÍø Assessed, the course is automatically certified after successful completion of the EOCA. Within the Focused Topics courses, all EOCAs for Training & Curriculum Specialists or Program Managers are ³Ô¹ÏÍø Assessed except for the Social Emotional Learning for Teachers (SELF-T) course, which is Self-Certified. For Direct Care users, the ³Ô¹ÏÍøing Children with Challenging Behaviors Focused Topics course is TCS Assessed; the Social Emotional Learning for Teachers (SELF-T) course is Self-Certified, and all other courses are ³Ô¹ÏÍø Assessed.
