New Service Provider Training is a hybrid training with two phases. Participants must complete phase one’s virtual sessions to participate in phase two’s in-person sessions.

In phase one, you will work independently and at your own pace in 10 virtual lessons hosted by the Michigan Victim Advocacy Network (MiVAN). MiVAN will provide training certificates for all virtual sessions you complete.

In phase two, training is delivered in-person over 2.5 days and facilitated by the Michigan Coalition to End Domestic and Sexual Violence (MCEDSV). Dates to attend phase two are offered monthly in rotating locations around the state.
