Module 2 – Foundations of EI Colorado

Notes:

• Slide 2.4.3 (Equitable Distribution of Resources) – This slide refers to 20 Community Centered Boards. There are still 20 local programs, but the name has been changed to Early Intervention Service Brokers or Early Intervention Brokers (EIB). When CCB is referred to throughout this training, the correct term now is EIB

• Slide 2.4.4 (Colorado Early Intervention Data System) – EI Colorado has moved away from calling the EI Data System “Unicorn.” It is still referred to as Unicorn throughout this training; however, it is now referred to as the EI Data System

• Slide 2.4.5 (EI Colorado State Plan) – The State Plan is undergoing a long process of revision. To find current information on the administration of the Part C Program in Colorado, please review the State of Colorado Rules and Regulations  

• Slide 2.6.1 (Colorado State Structure) – In 2022, Governor Jared Polis created a new department in Colorado, which is the Department of Early Childhood. At that time, EI Colorado moved from the Department of Human Services to the newly created Department of Early Childhood. EI Colorado is now located in the Department of Early Childhood, Office of Program Delivery, Division of Community and Family Support

• Slide 2.6.1 (Logo & Branding) – Since the development of this training, EI Colorado’s logo and branding have changed. The previous logo is still featured in these modules and on some documents, but the information is still accurate

Time: This module will take approximately 45 minutes to complete

Troubleshooting Tip:

• If all of the activities on a slide have been completed but there is no "forward" arrow, use the index (three little lines on the upper left) to go to the next slide

• How to Review Quiz Questions and Answers: When the quiz is completed (80% is required in order to pass and move forward), a screen with a box that says "Review my Results" will appear. Click on "Review my Results" to see each question, the correct answer, and an explanation of why that is the correct answer
