TOD Fall Schedule News

TOD is excited to provide you with the Early Fall Training Schedule. We have gotten a lot of feedback about how challenging it can be to get registered for classes as they fill-up quickly.  We are addressing this concern in a several ways 1) we offer multiple sessions of the Foundation Courses which are part of the required training for supervisors and we monitor the waitlists to determine if we need to add additional sessions due to high demand, 2) we are dividing our registration for the semester into two parts.  Early fall will cover classes that will be held between August 27 and October 19th.  These trainings will be released first. Late fall will cover classes held between October 22 and December 14th.  These trainings will be released during early fall. We hope the two different registrations will allow you to plan your schedule in more reasonable chunks of time and ensure that we have less ‘no-shows’, thereby making space for more learners
