ATLANTA, GA, July 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The ChildCare Education Institute® (CCEI), an online childcare training provider dedicated exclusively to the early care and education workforce, is pleased to introduce HLTH112: Identifying and Reporting Child Abuse to the online training catalog for childcare.

This course covers important information about child abuse, including abuse and neglect. Throughout the course, students will learn about different types of child abuse, signs of abuse and neglect, and the behavioral, social, and emotional effects of abuse on children of different ages. Participants will also gain an understanding of their responsibilities as a designated reporter of child abuse and neglect.
“Child abuse occurs at all socioeconomic levels, across ethnic and cultural boundaries, within all religions and at all levels of education,” he says Maria C Taylor, President and CEO of CCEI. …
