Training is said to be the key ingredient to a caregivers success, yet the availability of train-the-trainer programs for caregivers have been nonexistent. NVCC has recognized this need and developed a two day intensive training program conducted by NVCC faculty at your facility. This course has proven to be the #1 instrument to maximize retention and recruitment efforts. This program is filled with information, ideas and exercises that transform caregivers into experts in orientation and caregiver development.
