Reporting Abuse and Neglect – DCS self-paced course – 1 LEU

This self-paced course from the Indiana Department of Child Services focuses on how to identify different types of abuse, as well as how to report it to DCS.

Access the course via this link.

About LEUs for this self-paced course:

Library staff may only claim 1 LEU if it takes them at least 31 minutes to finish the course, so please take your time and progress through the course carefully.  Currently, this course auto-generates a Continuing Education certificate, created by DCS, upon completion.  To use this for your LEU certificate, please hand-write the time (minutes) it took to complete and the number of LEUs on the certificate, or have someone in administration create a new certificate for you following the rules set forth on the LEU Policies website.

Resources:  Visit Indiana’s Child Abuse and Neglect Hotline website for more information and resources on mandatory reporting.

Supplementing Science of Reading from the Library & TeachingBooks – 1 LEU

Learn how to discover exceptional texts to support and supplement science of reading instruction. While underscoring phonics, phonological awareness, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension, Indiana residents can now use the Indiana State Library INSPIRE-licensed TeachingBooks to identify popular picture books by more than a dozen phonics and phonetical awareness classifications (vowel and consonant sounds, alliteration, rhyming, and more). Additionally, you’ll have worksheets for each book to extend reading instruction in the library, home, or classroom.
