Training for Seneca Center’s Employees

Seneca Center believes that in order for youth and families to receive the best care and treatment possible, staff must receive on-going training on current and proven practices and professional development topics. We provide a learning lab for staff as well as undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate level interns/trainees. Building upon education and life experiences, Seneca Center provides on-the-job experiential learning and on-going formal training.

Every employee’s developmental path begins with a comprehensive two-week orientation, Basic Training, which provides an overview of the agency’s mission, values, intervention philosophy and methods. Once working in their program, new employees go through mentor training which allows them to learn from experienced staff members by observing and practicing therapeutic interventions.

In program, all staff are required to attend regular in-service trainings designed to enhance their therapeutic intervention skills and work effectively with youth and families. Additional training opportunities allow staff to broaden their knowledge base or hone specialty skills.

Our comprehensive clinical training supports clinicians in receiving and maintaining their licenses by providing training and supervision to meet pre and post licensure requirements as well as improving their practice. Through participation in the training program, clinicians develop expertise with children and families using Seneca’s unique relationship-behavioral approach. We also offer opportunities for developing specialized skills, including clinical supervision, program management, and evidence-based practices.

For staff who are interested in moving into managerial roles, Seneca also provides management training. The Introductory Management Training provides new and prospective managers with a didactic and hands-on training program designed to support them in transitioning to management positions. The program focuses on skills related to staff supervision, training and development. Advanced Management Training allows managers to hone supervisory and leadership skills, unify practices and procedures across programs, and earn GHA CEUs.

Staff are also encouraged to build upon their strengths and interests by attending training presented by experts in the field, as well as the computer classes and CPR classes offered to the larger provider community.
