Training & Certification
I have been an Alliance of Information & Referral Systems (AIRS) Certified Information & Referral Specialist in Aging (CIRS-A) since 2003. From the AIRS website:
AIRS Certification is a professional credentialing program for individuals working within the I&R sector of human services.
Certification is a measurement of documented ability in the field of I&R reflecting specific competencies and related performance criteria, which describe the knowledge, skills, attitudes and work-related behaviors needed by I&R practitioners to successfully execute their duties.
I also hold a certificate in Medical Gerontology from the Meharry Consortium Geriatric Education Center.
I have extensive training in the areas of information & referral, aging, and disability. Please contact me for additional information.
