Annual Required Education Courses 2023: Due July 31st!

For the last three years, we have required all Reliant Staff and Associates to take courses on two topics vital to fostering a safe and healthy environment for you as a staff member and for those to whom you minister. On June 1, 2023, we will once again launch web-based training courses on Child Safety Awareness and Harassment and Discrimination Prevention. These courses are meant to equip you and your team in ministry. You will also be asked to attest to Reliant’s Code of Conduct and policies. Your supervisor has been made aware of what is included in this year's Annual Required Education and the expectation that you complete these steps by July 31, 2023. 

This year, we will again invite you to complete a Ministry Experience Survey that includes questions about your experience at your partner church or ministry and about the services Reliant provides. While this survey isn't required, you will be entered into a drawing to win your choice of a gift basket if you complete the survey!

Below is some general information, but we also encourage you to visit the Getting Started and General Questions Solomon page to begin. Feel free to reach out to your Program Team with any questions. Both Kristina Lilly, Reliant's HR Compliance Coordinator, and I are also here to help, and you can reach us at hr@reliant.org. 

And don’t forget to check your Reliant inbox on June 1, 2023, for emails with instructions on how to access your courses in LEARN and a link to your MinistrySafe course.

I am grateful to be partnering with you to build safe and healthy ministries.

Warmly,

Julie Thomas, HR Director
