Registration is extended for training in Kansas City, Missouri. Limited space is available.

The Office of Head Start is pleased to announce its 2006 Head Start National Reporting System Training and Certification of Replacement Trainers, which will take place in three cities from July to August. The training provides opportunities for Head Start programs to build or restore internal capacity for implementing the coming and future years of Head Start National Reporting System (NRS) child assessments and/or to build capacity for bilingual/Spanish assessments. These sessions will also include training on the Computer Based Reporting System (CBRS). Limited training opportunities are available to Head Start grantees and delegate agencies based on the following criteria:

  1. Agencies that no longer have a certified trainer on staff
  2. Agencies that need a staff member certified to train in Spanish
  3. New grantees or delegate agencies since the initial NRS Training in July and August of 2003
  4. Agencies that did not participate in the 2003, 2004, or 2005 NRS Training
  5. Agencies that have experienced a significant increase in the number of 4 and 5-year olds recruited and enrolled
  6. Agencies with other needs to be considered on a case-by-case basis
