NOTE: 
All mandated workshops do not expire. However, as of the Spring of 2024, the state updated a new version of the Child Abuse Identification & Reporting workshop. So, anyone who has completed this workshop prior to last Summer, will need to complete the new program version of this workshop.

All state approved Child Abuse workshop providers have conducted the new updated version since the state implemented the change.
