Publications Overview
Staying connected and in touch is something we take seriously. In this section you will find our communications vehicles that we use to highlight best practices, who is providing these, to stay abreast of workforce development issues and to get us all in conversation with one another. Here is a lineup of those communications devices:
- A quarterly E-newsletter – Connections@CDS – that we use to communicate with anyone interested in the CDS, to share with readers the latest news from users and learners and to provide curriculum updates and news of interest about the CDS.
- Partner Profiles bi-monthly that focus on best practices and allow our end-users to tell their stories about how they use the CDS in their respective training programs and the results they see.
- Two Evaluation Briefs annually that evaluate the quality of the content, its ease of use for learners, the usefulness of its human resource functions and its contributions to the lives of persons with disabilities.
"The College of Direct Support combines contemporary curricula with information technology to deliver essential staff training to Direct Support Professionals on a multi-site and multi-state basis. This approach is not just creative and cost-effective -- it provides the field with a new and marvelous tool to improve the quality of care."
David Braddock, Ph.D.
