IOTI Project Offers TBI Certification Trainings

The Certified Brain Injury Specialist Training (CBIS) Project, funded through the Interagency Outreach Training Initiative (IOTI) from the CPD is offering several training opportunities this spring. These trainings will be held throughout Utah in the following regions: Logan, Davis County, Salt Lake City, & St. George.

Two types of training will be provided:
1) CBIS training which leads to a national CBIS certification designed for both entry-level staff and experienced professionals working in brain injury services. These trainings are designed for people who are currently working as professionals and direct care staff in statewide agencies and is not restricted to any one profession or discipline.

2) Basic brain injury training, TBI 101, is customized to meet the needs of groups and/or family members serving people with TBI.

These trainings are free to participants.
