Description
In this video, two agency teams discuss building new onboarding and training curricula, including focusing on job-specific skills instead of a culture of best practices. The teams also discuss onboarding and training staff in an increasingly virtual environment and the process for integrating cultural sensitivity and racial equity values across all areas of training.
Use this video with the CWVE 2023 Learning Experience Discussion Guide, which explains the CWVE topic and includes reflection exercises for individual learning and discussion prompts and team activities for child welfare staff to explore together.
