Accessibility Information
Welcome to APD's Provider Training page. From here you can access various pages for information about provider training requirements and opportunities. There are three types of APD-funded training for provider staff members: Required Basic Training (applies to all direct care staff), Required Service-Specific Training (applies to direct care staff of specific services), and Required In-Service Training. Some of these courses are offered in classroom settings, others are available in Web-based versions. APD's Web-based training is a cooperative effort with private industry and is available on the websites of Tallahassee Community College (TCC) , Training Resource Network (TRN), and the Department of Children and Families.
Some of the courses require fees, while others are provided free of charge. You can view APD's courses, and register for them, on the agency's new training calendars. Courses listed in the Required Training Calendar are required by a waiver handbook, the Florida Administrative Code, Florida Statutes or federal law. The In-Service Training Calendar lists a variety of training sessions, some of which may be taken to meet the annual in-service requirements of the waiver handbook.
