Be advised that this notice was published the first time on December 5, 2013 and this will be your third and FINAL WARNING that if you do not attend Transportation Training this month, we have no choice but to suspend you from work. Because this is a DDS requirement, you MAY NOT transport clients without this training, therefore we cannot pay any timesheets or mileage for Waiver services if you do not attend. Time and mileage that includes transportation of clients will be returned to you as unpayable if you do not fulfill your training requirements. We realize this sounds harsh but mandatory with the State of Arkansas really means mandatory.
Due to DDS requirements, each employee that transports clients, whether it be in a Civitan Services’ vehicle or your personal vehicle, must complete a DDS Transportation class.

**This includes ALL Waiver employees.**
Each employee who has attended this
class is also required to have a refresher course every three years. With this
being the case, I am sure that most everyone is due for this training. I have
schedule three classes in January to hopefully get everyone current on this
requirement. Classes held in the Transition Classroom in Bryant will have a
cutoff of 30 employees due to limited space. Classes held at the Benton campus
will not have a cutoff. Please register early so that you can make arrangements
to be available for one of these classes. Employees who have not attended one of
these classes or been scheduled to attend a class outside of Civitan Services by
Jan 24, 2014 will not be able to work until they have received this training.
Employee receiving this training outside of Civitan may be required to pay for
this training which is offered once a month in North Little Rock at a cost of
$40.00 . The training dates and locations are listed below. Please contact
me (Steve) to register for one of these classes.
Friday Jan 10th 9am – 4pm Transition Classroom @
Civitan Plaza in Bryant (This class is now FULL!)
Saturday Jan 11th 9am – 4pm Civitan Services
Campus in Benton
Friday Jan 24th 9am – 4pm Transition Classroom @

(Saturday Jan 25th
will be an alternate date if the Jan 11th class is cancelled due to
weather.)
