Welcome to the Wisconsin Family Resource Center Professional Development System
The Wisconsin Family Resource Center Professional Development System is housed within the Wisconsin Child Welfare Professional Development System – Milwaukee and is designed to offer educational opportunities and trainings geared specifically toward the needs of family support program professional staff within family resource centers as well as other family serving professionals. This site/page is designed to be a central location for these educational opportunities. The offerings align with the Wisconsin Core Competencies for Family Support Professionals. Some offerings are designed for those new to the field, others for more experienced professionals. There are also trainings to meet the specific needs of supervisors and other family resource center leadership.
There are a variety of partners who are providing the various offerings, including the host of this site, Wisconsin Child Welfare Professional Development System, and Wisconsin’s Family Resource Center Network Supporting Families Together Association. Contact information for all of the offerings listed on this page, can be accessed. However, in some cases you may be connected to offsite registration.
