Thank you for your interest!
This two-hour, virtual and interactive training is led by SHIFT facilitators and will focus on:
- The term “Technology First” and how it relates to person-centered practices.
- The term “enabling technologies,” including practical use cases for a variety of commonly used products, services and devices.
- Best practices for the adoption and implementation of a Technology First approach to services.
- High level systems and processes that support the adoption and implementation of technology.
- The unique, integral role that each team member plays in the adoption and implementation of enabling technology.
Participation Requirements
Our goal is to replicate an in-person learning environment as closely as possible. Participants are expected to treat this online session as they would a traditional classroom training—present, attentive, and ready to learn. To ensure the best possible experience for everyone:
• Be fully engaged and give the session their full attention. Multi-tasking—such as providing direct support, answering phone calls, or working on other computer tasks—is not permitted.
• Be stationary. Just as would be expected in an in-person class, remain in one place. Attending while driving, walking, or moving around is not acceptable.
• Join from an individual device with a camera. A computer or tablet with a front-facing camera is strongly preferred. If a phone must be used, the learner's face must be clearly visible (not the ceiling, the top of the learner's head, or an obstructed view). Groups joining from a single device are not allowed without pre-approval.
• Keep their camera on at all times. Active visual participation is essential for interaction and accountability.
• Arrive on time and stay for the full session. Just like an in-person training, participants may not miss more than 15 minutes of the course.
• Be prepared to take notes. Note-taking (on paper or electronically) supports learning and retention.
• Use the registered name on Zoom. Participants' display name must match the registration so we can confirm attendance and course credit.
