VCU VISSTA is pleased to offer the following online, self-paced courses for Non-VDSS employees. NOTE: VDSS employees can register for these courses through the Knowledge Center.
CWS5692: Mandated Reporters: Recognizing and Reporting Child Abuse and Neglect – (Online)
This course was designed for a wide range of participants with varying needs. The decision was made, in conjunction with the Virginia Department of Social Services (VDSS), to only offer a completion certificate for this course. Because the audience is so varied, it would be impossible for VDSS and VISSTA to offer every possible educational/professional development credit available.
In making the decision to only offer a certificate of completion, it was hoped that course participants could take their completion certificate back to their organization and work with that organization to receive any educational/professional development credits available.
Thank you for your interest in the Mandated Reporter courses.
