Have you ever looked at your job description and wondered what the “other duties as assigned” part of it really means? Do you sometimes feel like those other duties are the largest part of your job, but also the part you know the least about? Do you know how to do things, but don’t quite understand why we do them? If so, then this is the training for you! Being a manager in human services is a unique experience as we balance not only the supervision of employees, but also the individuals we support and act as a liaison between the county, state and our employer. This three hour course will cover the basics of supervision as it relates specifically to working in human services.

• What your responsibilities are as a supervisor
• Creating and maintaining positive relationships with IDT members
• Methods for coaching and counseling employees
• Employee training and team-building
• Customer service
• Basic information on funding, waivers and terminology in human services
Audience: This course will benefit lead staff or new managers working in human services.
