Hello, I noticed this credential is given credit at TESC and am seeking the cheapest option. Thanks. Hille
According to wiki (I know it's not the best resource), the requirements vary from state to state. Have you checked with the NADSP? Their website states: "Required elements: Must be a DSP-Registered; Proof of completion of 200 related instruction hours, including classroom/online learning and such strategies as: skills mentoring or discussion seminars or applying the learning through on-the-job training or portfolio development sessions, from an NADSP accredited education or training program; Proof of two years continuous and current work with a community human services employer (an individual/family who self-directs their supports or a provider organization); Professional resume; Updated letter of professional commitment; Letter of support/recommendation from a person to whom the DSP provides service or, in some situations, their family member or legal representative; Portfolio of work samples that demonstrate competence in 8 of the15 NADSP competency areas; Signed and dated re-commitment to adhere to the NADSP Code of Ethics.
