SUNY Canton to begin offering direct support professional microcredentials at no-cost - North Country Now

SUNY Canton will soon launch fully-funded Direct Support Professional (DSP) microcredentials that will train and upskill a workforce dedicated to empowering those with developmental disabilities. A grant from the New York State Office for People With Developmental Disabilities (OPWDD) will cover tuition, certification, fees, books, and support, as well as provide a $750 stipend, for students who complete any of SUNY Canton's DSP microcredentials (6 credits each) and go on to earn a National Alliance for Direct Support Professional certification.
