Changes in HCBS Employment Rules Are you familiar with the proposed changes to employment rules and

how they affect training for HCBS?

New rules for Iowa’s HCBS employment services went into effect May 4, 2016. Are you clear on the requirements? Has your agency adjusted your staff training plan to come into compliance?

Did you know the DirectCourse and the College of Employment Services can help you meet the rules?

If you have questions about this, please contact Brita Nelson @ [email protected].
