| Mandated reporters can participate in this 2-hour
web-based online training course at any time, 24/7. Once you begin, you
will have 30 days to complete the course. In this Flash-based learning
application, the existing OCFS curriculum was divided into smaller, more
manageable sections. This allows users to save their progress at the end
of each section--so they can complete it at their own pace, either in one
sitting, or in multiple sessions. Users who log out after completing a
section will automatically be returned to the end of their last completed
section when they log back on to the training site. The course features
interactive exercises that are customized for the major disciplines:
Social Services, Education, Law Enforcement, Child Day Care and Medical.
The course also addresses definitions, indicators, and how to make a
report to the State Central Register. The application is full narrated and
includes taped video segments that enhance the learning points. This
course meets the New York State Education Department mandatory requirements
for Training in Child Abuse Identification and Reporting.

This specialized intensive training is for trainers
who have responsibilities for training within their agency, organization or in the community. Participants will learn how to prepare and deliver a Mandated Reporter Training workshop, learn about the legal framework of the New York State Child Protective System,
common definitions of child abuse and maltreatment, and how to identify physical
and behavioral indicators associated with abuse and maltreatment. Participants
will also learn how to complete reporting requirements to fulfill the professional legal mandate of their classroom participants.
After attending this two day TOT, participants will receive the updated OCFS training curriculum,
participant handouts, and a PowerPoint presentation, including embedded video material,
for their use in training mandated reporters in the community they serve.
