I already attended the in-person Domestic Violence Basics, do I have to complete the new Advocates' Institute: The Basics as well to qualify for 200 level trainings?
No but you will have to demonstrate you have a good command of the Advocates' Institute: The Basics content. We have created a quiz you can complete prior to registering for any 200 level trainings. A score of 100% is required for the test to be accepted as a prerequisite for 200 level trainings.
I don't see Confidentiality for Domestic Violence Advcocates listed in Training Events. How do I register for this training?
Confidentiality for Domesetic Violence Advocates is one of our On-Demand Online Trainings. You will find Confidentiality for Domestic Violence Advoacates in the Online Trainings section of your Coalition Manager dashboard or by following this link.
Is there a similar test for Confidentiality for Domestic Violence Advocacates that qualifies as a prerequisite for 200 level trainings?
No. Due to the importance of confidentiality - for both legal requirements and trauma-informed practices - that everyone participating in our new Advcoates' Institute Training Series should complete Confidentiality for Domestic Violence Advocates, even if it is a refresher.
