Early childhood educators looking to update mandated reporter training for the school year should visit iLookOut for new online courses.

Update Mandated Reporter Training

Educators are required to keep up to date with their required three hours of Act 31-mandated reporter training. 

The iLookOut for Child Abuse Project offers online courses about protecting and supporting children and their families free of charge. Visitors to the site will learn how to support at-risk children and their families and meet required training with interactive, video-based storyline training.

The site includes eight- to 12-minute micro-learning exercises and is available to all Pennsylvania-mandated reporters. Participants can receive a $15 gift card for completing iLookOut’s mandated reporter training.
