Continuing Education Classes?

Does anyone know anything about the classes we are supposed to take as foster and/or adoptive parents? Our girls have been with us for 10 months now and we are being told that we have to take these "classes" in order to keep our license. I guess you are supposed to take so many per year. Does anyone know about these. Our SWer is coming Wednesday for her monthly visit and I will also talk to her, but this is crazy. NO ONE I mean NO ONE has told me anything about this. I stumbled across some information on the FAFS website. I guess you can get the courses sent to your home and do them there, but I don't know much more than that. Does anyone know how many "credits" we need a year.

With all the hoops we have had to jump through with DYFS over the past 2 years now, my husband is about sick of being told there is still something else to do. IF DYFS told all adoptive parents what they were getting into - all across the board- I think they would lose many
interested parents.

The demands just keep coming.....can't wait for the appeal to be dismissed
