WIPA Training Programs


The Work Incentive Planning and Assistance National Training Center provides initial certification training to CWICs to enable them to provide services to SSA beneficiaries, and also provides supplemental trainings to WIPA personnel on a variety of topics.

The CWIC Initial Training Program is based on a comprehensive set of competencies that CWICs must acquire in order to be "certified" to provide work incentives planning and assistance services to SSA beneficiaries. The interactive training session is designed to provide CWICs with the basic skills and knowledge they need to perform their jobs effectively.

Additional supplemental trainings on specific topics are also periodically offered to WIPA personnel.
