Replays are an opportunity to complete a training that you may have missed on a day and time that work for you.
Work during the day?
Have an unexpected appointment come up?
Can’t get a babysitter?
Replays are for you! They’re for all registrants to complete training at their own pace at a time that works for them.
When are replays offered?
Replays are offered for a few weeks in a row, typically a few months after the original training is offered to allow us time to edit the recording. Watch the “Collaborative Trainings and Events” or your local area pages in the newsletter and also watch your emails for dates of upcoming replays!
Will I receive a certificate for replays?
Register on our Learning Management System: learn.fpsss.com, watch the recording and complete any quizzes and evaluations available for that session.
Need assistance with a replay?
Contact Krista at 1-888-922-8437 or reach out to your local coordinator.

Trauma-informed Transition Training
Every child in care experiences a minimum of two transitions: entering care and moving out of care.
Caregivers trained in creating trauma-informed transitions can improve the outcomes for children and youth. In this training module, you will connect with your peers in a dedicated online community as you explore strategies for successful transitions.
While a key driver of this training is the “Act respecting First Nations, Inuit and Métis children, youth and families” and reuniting Indigenous Children and Youth with their Community”, the content is relevant to all foster caregivers as it supports trauma-informed transitions for children and youth.
This training includes key topics organized over the following six units that focus on preparing children and their caregivers for trauma-informed transitions:
- Community Building
- Relationships
- The Act (Bill C-92)
- Trauma-informed Practice
- Policy
- Advocacy
- Grief and Loss
