Mandatory Training
Using Workday Oregon
Introduction
The State of Oregon requires all Direct Support Professionals to complete training within the first couple months of being hired. All of the training is online and results in certificates that the company will keep in employee files.
Payment for Training
All required training as a DSP, from ARISE Mentors and the State of Oregon is paid for. If unclear what is required and what is not, please contact the main office staff or Agency Trainer for clarification.
The courses are not long. Most of them can be completed in about 30 minutes. It is recommended that you take a screen shot of acknowledgement of completion of each course when you pass. Some course take more than 30 minutes and Workday will likely “Time Out” after 10-15 minutes depending on how you take the course.
Where to Be Trained
Even though all training is done at the state training website, you must come to the ARIE Mentors Main Office to complete all training. In order to take all Workday courses, you need to establish an account with them.
To create an account, go to Workday Oregon’s “Register to Learn”.

Mandatory Trainings
- All New Employees should take this training within one month of being hired. Employees that have been with us for a year or so should take this training as soon as possible, even if you took it previously. The state has made many changes and they expect all DSPs to being trained in current requirements.
- The rest of the mandatory trainings are called the DSP Core Competency trainings. They cover many subjects, and all are required. Here is a link to the Core Compentencies:
Certification
Both the Mandatory Abuse course and the core competencies courses (100 & 200 Series) result in a certificate that you must download or print and forward to the Main Office Staff, or to the Agency Trainer. If you do not download/ print the certificate, we cannot guarantee you have completed the required training mandated by Oregon Law.
