SUMMER! It has been a time for graduations and new starts!   Diplomas, Certifications, Licensures, and employment applications gain special attention. 
So many forms!
The International Gambling Counselor Certification Board has developed a new website:  www.igccb.org and it is a very helpful resource for all wanting to attain the CCGSO credentials of Clergy/Lay Minister Certification.  Then too, for those of us who are already CCGSO credentialed, the necessary forms to continue  IGCCB certification status are included within the website.

from the Problem Gambling Network of Ohio …
PGNO, with support from OhioMHAS is offering four days of training for the International Gambling Counselor Certification Board (IGCCB) Clergy/Lay Minister Certification in Gambling Addiction Prevention, Education, Awareness and Spiritual Outreach Care.

The IGCCB certification provides a process for recognizing and certifying clergy, lay ministers, religious persons, and other faith leaders to offer informed guidance, educational materials, support, hope, spiritual care, and help to people and families affected by problem gambling and addiction.

The training will be held
October 29-November 1, 2019. Attendees must complete all four days of the training in order to be eligible for certification. The cost for the training is $50, which will include all coursework, breakfast & lunch for each day.

Additionally, there is an administration fee of $50 for certification, however PGNO will pay the IGCCB administrative fee, provided all certification requirements are met.

A light breakfast and lunch will be provided for each training day, and sessions will be held from 9:00 a.m.- 4:30 p.m. at Ohio Department of Natural Resources, 2045 Morse Rd, Bldg E, Assembly Room East and West, Columbus, OH, 43229. Pre-registration is required and seating is limited.
