OADSP’s Frontline Supervisor Credential (FLSC) enriches the knowledge, skills, and tools of the new or seasoned Frontline Supervisor. The FLSC program includes sixty (60) hours of training. This is divided into twenty (20) 3-hour Modules, each of which can be used as stand-alone trainings (and, in Ohio, as credit toward the competency-based add-on), and to earn the National Alliance for Direct Support Professionals’ Frontline Supervisor Credential (NADSP FLS). The NADSP FLS requires twenty-five (25) hours of NADSP-accredited training.
Additionally, to complete the FLSC, learners are required to show competence in specific areas as documented by e-badging through NADSP. Learn more about that element of the credential here.
