Exciting new changes are happening to the way we do business! We are pleased to announce that on July 1, 2010, we will begin using our online Credentialing Information System (CIS) to register and track all initial and refresher courses for the State. During the month of June, we will host 5 training sessions across the State to provide further instructions and details of this new system. Attendance at one of these training sessions is mandatory for all Program Coordinators. Additional key staff who help coordinate course information or instructors are welcome to attend, however space is limited so we ask that only 2 additional members attend this training from your institution. Please make arrangements to attend one of the following mandatory sessions:
Be sure to indicate the date and location you prefer to attend. Directions to each location will be provided upon registration. In the meantime, DHEC would like to ask all Program Coordinators to please create a profile in CIS if they do not currently have one. The profile will ensure all Program Coordinators are configured properly in CIS prior to the training session. Note: Individuals who have an EMT certification should already have a profile in CIS. Please do not create a duplicate profile. The following link will explain how to search and create a profile in CIS:
