Adoption training online

Does anyone have any recommendations for online Adoption training? I found a couple places to do it, but can't tell if one is better or more comprehensive than another.

Thanks in advance!

Are you talking about Hauge training online? If so, I do have a couple of recomendations. We were unable to make the training our agency provided, so we did find a good one online that worked instead.

our agency required us to complete a training course through Heart of the Matter Seminars. The one we did was a multiple part session that was maybe $150, but it was good.

Last adoption, we did some courses through Adoption Learning Partners and I think it was free (that was in 04/05).

I used Adoption Learning Partners, too. Most courses aren't free (05 to present).

Thanks folks. Just found out today that my agency requires us to use adoptioneducation.com, which seems to be the most affordable I've seen, only $120 for the package of required courses.

I *love* "Heart of the Matter". Have their DVD set, from when they were doing their training that way. They really paint the picture so accurately, and give such great advice.
