Computer Based Trainings

In addition to the multi-day in-person trainings offered to SSS1s and SSAs, the Child Welfare Partnership offers several Computer Based Trainings (CBTs). These CBTs will provide a foundation for major topics that will be covered during our in-person trainings, and are often pre-requisites for many of our training offerings.

To see a list of pre-requisites for our training offerings, see our SSS1 training page and our SSA training page.
