This program component is responsible for delivering competency-based
curricula to new staff in public child welfare services. Activities are
designed to ensure that new workers receive the knowledge, skills, and attitudes
necessary for their jobs, and to ensure that managers and supervisors
reinforce, monitor, and promote what is learned in the classroom to the
work site. The training consists of 23.5 days of training for the new worker
and one day of Transfer of Learning training for his/her supervisor. This training meets the Statewide requirements for the California Common Core for social workers.
