One of the biggest challenges providers face as they work to maintain regulatory compliance is to ensure staff receive continual and on-going training.
This challenge is even more complicated because employees are spread across service settings, counties, have differing schedules, and often work alone.
In fact, at least one state department of developmental disabilities has identified lack of on-going training as a key reason for provider citations and regulatory non-compliance.
And staff complain too.
The #1 complaint staff have is that there is not enough training.
And the #2 compliant is…that they have to go to training!

I know your days are busy, your job isn't easy, and the last thing you need is another training that sounds good but doesn't change anything.
You don’t have time for that nonsense.
You want a clear understanding of why you keep dealing with the same problems over and over, and you’d love a clear set of practical solutions that get your problems off your plate…for good!
And that…is exactly what you’ll get.
The steps to take. The words to say. The questions to ask.
For more than 35 years, I've worked in nearly every corner of the developmental disability field - from direct support and frontline leadership to management, investigations, activities, compliance, service coordination, housing, behavior support, organizational consulting, and more. I've spent my career helping provider organizations solve problems, strengthen teams, and improve the quality of services they provide.
So when we talk about the challenges you're facing, we're not talking about theories or "best practices" that only work on paper. We're talking about the real world.
You’ll leave with ideas you can actually use…the minute your training ends.
I'm glad you're here. Let's get started.





If you're ready to stop straining your brain to think of great activities and are ready to implement a robust dependable process that quickly produces a steady stream of meaningful activities based on individuals' interests...this training is for you!
