This training includes three modules. Each module has its own competency. All three modules and corresponding competencies must be completed to receive credit for the Supported Employment Across Waivers Training.

Please note that Module 3 has been revised and renamed. “Social Security Benefits and Employment” is a five-part training series that replaces the older version called “What do you Mean I can Work and be on Disability?!” It is not a new training; the content has been updated. Each of the five parts is no longer than 15 minutes, for a total time of just over 1 hour.
