Upon completion of the training, the employee or parent is to submit to Training a copy of the Out-of-Agency Training Record Keeping Form (paper) Out-of-Agency Record Keeping Form (computer) which will identify the specific training activities of the participant. This data will be included in the person's training records. This is to be submitted to Training within five working days after the training.

  3. Any employee or parent whose registration is funded by HEAD START of Greater Dallas, Inc., and/or is attending the training activity on Head Start time, must understand that he/she is accountable for professional and responsible behavior that reflects our agency's highest ideals.

  4. Due to limitations of funds to provide out-of-agency participation in quality conferences, seminars, etc., the employees and parents who are selected to attend are expected to share the information obtained from the training with other employees and parents in a timely manner.  This is usually done in an In-Service Training activity. 

  5. To qualify for this, the employee must be a certified trainer.  Exceptions to this could be Teachers attending the DAEYC Saturday Special, L.E.A.P. training, or other like training events.  Also this qualification does not apply to parents.
