When initially applying for a New York license, certification, or limited permit, select individuals are required to provide documentation of having completed two hours of training in the identification and reporting of child abuse and maltreatment. This is a one-time requirement and once taken does not need to be completed again.
To satisfy this requirement, you should complete the course with an approved New York State child abuse provider.
Look no further! Advantedge Education is an approved New York State child abuse identification and reporting training provider and was assigned provider number 10685. We deliver an engaging online learning environment that meets the New York State curriculum and is enriched with the experiences of two expert case workers who provided real examples of children who experienced abuse. Once you complete the course, we securely transmit your record of completion to the New York State Education Department.
