All training flyers are available on the California Association of Health and Education Linked Professions (CAHELP) website (http://cahelp.dmselpa.org) and all registration is handled through the Organizational Management System (OMS) at http://sbcss.k12oms.org For events that require payment, individuals must register online and follow up with payment forwarded to the Charter SELPA office. When an individual initially registers online, he/she will receive an email indicating that his/her registration will be confirmed once payment is received. Once the Charter SELPA has received payment, registrants will be sent another email confirming registration. Those who do not receive a confirmation email prior to the day of the training should check with the Charter LEA to determine whether payment has been sent. If payment has been sent and the registration has not yet been confirmed, individuals should contact the Charter SELPA office to confirm/verify registration and that all materials will be available for all participants on the day of the training. Many of the Charter SELPA trainings fill up quickly and, unfortunately, the Charter SELPA has had to turn away some individuals on the day of the training due to nonreceipt of payment, and because the training was full. It is in the individual’s best interest to register early and ensure that payment is sent promptly so that registration can be confirmed. The Charter SELPA hopes the electronic system streamlines the registration process and allows individuals to verify registration via email prior to the event. Section D – On-Site Training To request training from the Charter SELPA, Charter LEA staff must fill out an on-site request form. This form must be signed by the Charter LEA Special Education Director and sent to the Charter SELPA office. The request form can be scanned and emailed or faxed to the SELPA Program Manager for Regional Services at 17800 Highway 18, Apple Valley, CA 92307, (760) 242-5363. The Special Education Director and requestor’s email addresses should be included in the form so that the Charter SELPA can verify receipt of the training request via email. Because program specialists book trainings several months in advance, the Charter SELPA will need approximately six week’s advance notice to fulfill requests for on-site training. The Charter SELPA program team meets every Monday to review all requests and to assign requests to the
