RHA's Commitment to
Training
RHA is proud to have some of the best trained employees in the
helping industry.
We place a premium on the importance of staff training because
we know that the only way the people we support will reach their
goals is if our staff are appropriately trained.
We also know that we must have well trained staff if we are
going to uphold our own standards of:
- Providing high quality, cost effective services
- Being honest, trustworthy and reliable in all relationships
- Treating others fairly
- Being a good citizen in our communities, and
- Pursuing fiscal responsibility for growth
RHA offers a wide variety of training opportunities for our
employees. And our employees are paid to learn. When they can
demonstrate new competencies they may be eligible for raises. We
think it is that important!
We are proud of our innovative pre-service program that
utilizes the latest adult learning practices to make the
"before on-the-job" training so much more effective.
One of the other ways we demonstrate the value we place on
training is through our investment in training. We spend tens of
thousands of dollars annually to make sure we have
state-of-the-art content, techniques, and mechanisms to deliver
the best training for our employees. We intentionally meet or
exceed every state and federal training requirement…and we are
proud of it.
| We also demonstrate the value we place on
training through our on-going relationship with "The
Institute", now a division of RHA. The Institute,
an international provider of training and consultation, is
constantly working to develop new training content and new
ways to deliver training that will meet the ever changing
needs of both our workforce and the people we support. |

Beyond the traditional classroom format and videos, we are now
developing a standardized curriculum for all aspects of our
training allowing us to continue to develop the best new ways of
delivering interactive training, such as self-paced instruction,
computer based training, and on-line learning.
Finally, if you are changing careers or just starting yours,
RHA is a great school for people who want to learn how to be the
best at helping others.
Below is an abbreviated sample of just one of the many training
programs RHA employees take part in. This training has been
converted from a PowerPoint training into an Adobe PDF format for
viewing. You will need the Adobe Reader software to view
