TRIS Team
|
|
|
The Training Records Information System (TRIS) Team is part of the University Training Consortium Project based at Eastern Kentucky University. The team provides products, support, and programming to assist in providing quality training for Cabinet for Health and Family Services (CHFS), Department for Community Based Services (DCBS) employees; resource parents, contracting officials, and community partners to better serve the families and children of the Commonwealth. The team has multiple responsibilities and is structured around three basic "functional" areas. |
Jana Godsey, Assistant Director, is the supervisor of the TRIS Team. |

Team members who work with this system are responsible for posting training information on the Online Registration System (ORS), processing training registration and participant lodging requests, capturing training records, and capturing evaluation data for scheduled training events. |

| Team members who work with this system are responsible for capturing and maintaining information on resource parents from initial point of contact through approval, capture training attendance for resource parents, and compile closure survey for foster parents.
