The proposed training requirements represent a significant expansion of workforce expectations.

These include:

• Mandatory MAP credentialing for youth providers.
• Extensive DBHDS Learning Management System training.
• Additional adult EBP training requirements.
• Mandatory BHT Academy training despite other recognized credentialing pathways through the Department of Health Professions.

Requiring documentation in multiple tracking systems, including DBHDS LMS and CEP-VA, creates unnecessary duplication. Existing provider learning management systems or documentation submitted during audits should satisfy compliance requirements.
