The TAS Advisory Workgroup was formed in 2017 to help guide the ongoing development of The Nevada Registry’s implemented trainer criteria, approval and qualification process. The TAS Advisory Workgroup was dissolved in November 2022 and now functions as an Ad Hoc Committee as needed.
The original work of the TAS Advisory Workgroup included, but was not limited to:
- Assisting in the development of alternative processes for obtaining experience delivering training to adults.
- Further defining the requalification/renewal criteria.
- Assisting with the development of a training program for new trainers and mentoring program for existing trainers.
- Exploring other components of the new and improved training approval system related to quality assurance (i.e., evaluation, observations);
- Creating an evaluation process for approved trainers to evaluate the Training Approval System annually; and
- Providing overall support to The Nevada Registry in the community related to trainer criteria.
Workgroup Composition
The TAS Advisory Workgroup was comprised of members representing The Nevada Registry (staff), The Nevada Registry Advisory Committee, the Registry Advisory Committee Trainer Criteria Workgroup and specific sectors of the trainer community and Early Childhood workforce in Nevada. The original appointed members of the workgroup were all approved as trainers in 2017 under the new trainer qualification and approval criteria and were selected through an application process.
