Training
Direct Course
MRCI has been working with the College of Direct Support (Direct Course) to assist with the training requirements for the 245D licensed services. At this time, all staff have been loaded into the Direct Course and trainings are available.
Under the 245D statute all employee are required to have 6 or 12 hours of training annually, this number is dependent on the number of years employed. MRCI will offer trainings throughout the year to ensure all staff has met their training requirement. MRCI will send communication to the Client Representative and to all employees through email and/or mail once more trainings are available.
Direct Course is a great tool for training staff. Since the trainings are available online staff have the option of listening, reading and/or watching videos may be available of the training material. A short quiz will follow and staff will have unlimited chances to pass the quiz. Once the quiz has been completed, MRCI will receive the results and will pay staff for their time. Time is allocated by Direct Course for each training.
