Any of our training offerings could be scheduled at your site. Typical on-site training fees are $80.00 per hour plus the cost of materials. This fee may be adjusted due to several factors (e.g., number of participants, contractual arrangements, out of county training). Please note: OASAS approved training, cost and number of participants, for CASAC hours at your site are negotiated case by case.

Attendance from start to finish of each training is mandatory in order to
receive a certificate of completion.
