Instructor:  Jennifer Hoover, Facilitator - Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse (CPCA)

Synopsis:  The addendum to the 2025 Mandated Reporter Training in Identifying and Reporting Child Abuse and Maltreatment/Neglect is an additional license requirement for certain professionals in New York State.  The addendum meets the curriculum requirements for the Mandated Reporter Training that all licensed professionals are required to complete before November 17, 2026.  Only those who have taken the Part I Update are eligible to take the Addendum rather than the full course.  You must, therefore, call HQs with your credit card information (914-747-1199) to register.

After completing the addendum, professionals will be able to:

Recognize signs of intellectual and/or developmental disabilities in children and factors to consider when determining whether a child with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities show indicators of maltreatment or abuse.
