The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) has shared a new tool designed to support Administrative Entities and ODP staff when Providers or Supports Coordination Organizations (SCO) choose to provide agency-developed or agency-identified training that meets the General Orientation and annual training requirements of the 55 PA Code 6100. The reviewer determines if the identified staff completed each required annual training core course based on provider training records, including, but not limited to, a description of the course, sign-in sheets, transcripts, or certificates of completion from the training. ODPANN 24-036 is being included as a reminder of the annual training requirements.
