Family Service Coordination Toolkit
Early Intervention personnel who provide Family Service Coordination in Kansas are required to complete the Family Service Coordination (FSC) Toolkit within 3-months of assuming that role.
The toolkit is organized into 6 distinct lessons. Each lesson includes weblinks and other supporting material pertinent to the topic area and concludes with a formative assessment. For each lesson, the learner should work through the webpages and attachments, take the test at the end of each section, and review the information with a program mentor or coordinator. The mentor will assist the learner with application of the topics to Kansas-specific implementation of service coordination.
Upon completion of the toolkit, the local Part C Coordinator should request a certificate of completion for the provider. Certificates are valid indefinitely as a provider moves between programs within the state, if uninterrupted employment has occurred. A record of all providers completing this training is kept by the KITS administrative office.
To request a certificate, the local program coordinator submits the following information:
- The name and email address of the Family Service Coordinator or practitioner who completed the toolkit.
- The organization they are with.
- The date the toolkit was completed.
- Number of total hours the person took to complete the toolkit.
Please send certificate completion information to kskits@ku.edu.
The Family Service Coordination modules are hosted and maintained by DEC-SPED.
If you have issues with logging on to the toolkit, contact techsupport@dec-sped.org
