Training Schedule and Forms for Caregivers

Foster caregivers are required to complete 27 hours of pre-service training and 22.5 hours of training annually thereafter. Training is offered on a variety of topics that are integral to allowing caregivers to meet the needs of children in their care.

Pre-certification classes are held virtually and are offered on a rolling basis. For ongoing training, Cadence offers multiple monthly trainings that are virtual and in person across northern Ohio. Trainings are given by Cadence employees as well as outside trainers that are Ohio Child Welfare Training Program certified.
