Upcoming Training Calendar for Current CK Foster/Adoptive Families:
The classes listed here are available for current Covenant Kids Foster and Adoptive
families only. If you plan to attend any of these training classes, please ensure you reserve your space by calling or emailing the appropriate
contact below. In order for us to have better communication with attendees, it is important that we know who is attending each class. We make
confirmation calls the day before each class and, on occasion, a class may need to be cancelled. Ensuring you have reserved your space in class
will help us communicate this with you better. If you reserve your space via email, we will confirm your space by reply email. If you do not
receive a reply, we may not have received your request to attend.
Beginning in 2007, due to new Minimum Standards set by the state, Behavior Management is required to be an 8 hour class. We previously scheduled this on
two Saturdays at 4 hours each (Behavior Management I and Behavior Management II) with attendance to both classes required. It has been decided to change this
to one all day 8 hour class. Please see the changes to the calendar below for this class.
