From the Training Unit
By Glenna Ress, Training Officer
General Staff: Reminder, on Friday, October 30th MCCS will be
hosting a six (6) hour credit training. The speaker is Anthony
President and the title of his workshop is Filtering the Noise
From Young Black Boys. Other community agency partners, such
as JJC Staff, D&E staff and others will also be attending this
workshop.
Employee Trainings: Everyone will notice when they go to the
R.T.C. or elsewhere, there are new sign in sheets, as well as
new evaluation forms. The line for social security numbers has
been removed and now just month and day of birth, not the
year, is required for the sign in sheet. The evaluation sheet
will require you to fill out the line that says User ID: All
this is, is the 2 digit month of your birthday, the 2 digit
day of your birthday, your first initial of your legal first
name and the first 5 characters of your legal last name.
For example Betty Johnson born on Feb.12 would be: 0212BJohns
Interns: Welcome Tracey Clinkscale. Tracey is a UPP student
working on her Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work at YSU. She is
very anxious to meet everyone and learn as much from us as she
can. Welcome Tracey.
Employee Trainings: Christine Powell remains in the Family
Service Department in Mercia Steven’s unit and Samantha Rotz
is in the Intake Department working as an Intake Screener.
