Mandatory Child and Adult Abuse Reporter Training

In the spring of 2001, legislation was passed requiring all individuals renewing a license or authorization issued by the Board of Educational Examiners to provide proof of completion of an approved "Mandatory Child and Dependent Adult Abuse Reporter Training" program. This law became effective on October 1, 2002.

This training should be available through your local Area Education Agency.

A complete list of the approved training programs may be found at http://www.idph.state.ia.us/bh/abuse_ed_review.asp

Scroll down to the section titled "Approved Curricula," and then click the link titled "approved curricula." Please note that only those programs that are designated TYPE 3 meet Iowa license renewal requirements.
