This training is required for all staff members who drive as part of their job duties and responsibilities. This includes all of our Residential/Housing Care Services, Work Force, Catt. County Case Management, Compeer, Maintenance, and Administrative staff. Therefore, staff members who were certified after January 1, 2015 should not enroll in this session. Please use the form below to register for this training. Good News! This year STEL will pay for staff members’ insurance certificates (over $35 value). Unfortunately, do to class size restrictions we will NOT be able to extend an invitation to employee's spouses and other household members to take this course. However JCC does offer classes to the community throughout the year. Please check JCC website for dates and times.
