Upcoming Coordinated Entry - Monthly Assessor Credential Training (ACT)

*formally known as the Assessor Refresh

The Monthly Assessor Credential Training is hosted virtually every month and is required once a year for all assessors. Come prepared to participate in Racial and Anti Biais training, followed by an HMIS demo on your basic assessor workflow. The training is designed to help assessors of all levels (new and seasoned) identify and address bias, lead sensitive conversations with empathy, and help you and those we serve navigate through the HMIS system.
