CCS/Provider Training Matrix Webinar 

The DDA is pleased to announce the release of the first-ever CCS/Provider Training Matrix which represents the first in a multi-phase rollout of competency-based training! This new resource is intended to help all providers with understanding staff training requirements for the services they offer, as well as providing resources for each training topic area. In addition to the CCS and Provider specific tabs, the definitions tab explains each column’s content. Please note, the requirements outlined in the Matrix  are not new, rather they are currently outlined in COMAR, DDA policy or our waivers. Additionally, the Matrix does not require a specific training to meet training requirements, rather agency training should include the general knowledge outlined. You can find the training Matrix on DDA’s CCS Webpage and DDA’s Provider Webpage both the CCS and Provider DDA webpages. 

 
Specific to the Provider tab, the DDA Training Matrix represents the first in a multi-phase rollout of competency-based training aligned with the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services nationally-validated DSP core competency set. The definitions tab explains each column’s content.

 
The DDA will be hosting a webinar on Thursday, July 6, 2023 from 11:00a-12:00p to provide additional information regarding the use of the CCS/Provider Training Matrix and answer any questions.
