The Training Fund is starting in-person appointments – Learn about our COVID policies

Like the rest of the world, when the pandemic hit the Training Fund had to adapt quickly and efficiently.

In the past two years the Training Fund has developed all virtual services, has worked to create more accessible education opportunities for our members, has helped develop leading virtual technology through the Virtual Health Institue, garnered grant funding to increase our services, and more.

What we are truly impressed with is the resilency of our members, and your willingness to continuing serving the community. Our leadership projected a decline in member applications for tuition assistance, professional development, and CEU funding. Instead you, our members, have increased your use of the Training Fund. Members are looking to better educate themselves and serve our communities while we still navigate the COVID-19 pandemic.

We want to say thank you. We are proud to be your Training Fund.

Most of our staff are still working virtually and remotely. The Training Fund has implemented new COVID-19 policies regarding limited in-person appointments and guest visits to help keep our staff and members healthy and virus-free.

Learn all about our COVID-19 policies and our partners’ policies at our new COVID-19 Policy page.
