NOTICE:

CHANGES TO MANDATORY

REPORTER TRAINING

On May 8, 2019, Governor Kim Reynolds

signed into law HF731, making changes

on how mandatory reporter training (both

child abuse and dependent adult abuse)

is provided. On July 1, 2019, the Iowa

Department of Human Services (DHS) took

over the responsibilities for the training of all

Mandatory Reporters in the state of Iowa. The

training is offered online at no charge through

DHS. This is the only approved training

allowed in Iowa. Due to these regulatory

changes, Hawkeye Community College is no

longer offering Mandatory Reporter Training.

Any Mandatory Reporter Training completed

at Hawkeye prior to July 1, 2019 is valid per

HF731, Sec. 7, which stats: “A child abuse

or dependent adult abuse training certificate

relating to the identification and reporting of

child abuse or dependent adult abuse issued

prior to July 1, 2019, remains effective and

continues in effect as issued for the five-year

period following its issuance.”
