For most staff, the training will take about 3 hours. For staff in supervisory or leadership roles, the training will take about 5 hours. All of the courses can be taken at the user's own pace and they do not have to be completed in one sitting. Here's more detailed information about the Required Education Courses.

You'll begin receiving communication to your Reliant email address the week of June 8. And you will have until August 7, 2020 to complete the steps listed at the top of this page. We challenge you to complete these steps sooner, rather than later. It's at least four 3 hours worth of work.

The courses are available to you, your supervisor and any non-Reliant ministry staff or volunteers your supervisor may think necessary. We recommend going through the content and quizzes on your own, but discussing , and your ministry leaders (even if they are not employed by Reliant). You will need to complete the course on your own. However, we encourage you to discuss as a team how this information and the related policy changes may impact your ministry work. This is especially applicable to staff who work . For example, maybe with children and youth (ages 17 and under) or vulnerable adults as the Child and Vulnerable Adult Safety policy and guidelines is new for Reliant.
