SUBJECT: Approve Contract between the County of Lake and The Regents of the University of California for Training Services in the amount of $136,000, from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020 and authorize the Chair to sign.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The University of California Davis Campus (UC Davis) provides essential training and all related materials for Lake County Department of Social Services (LCDSS) employees. Trainings cover various topics including Confidentiality and Ethics in Human Services, Civil Rights, Welfare Fraud- Prevention and Detection, Accounting and Fiscal trainings, and even Field Safety Training. Many of these courses are required in order to comply with State regulations. The trainings not required by State law provide valuable information that would not be readily available or cost effective without the UC Davis contract. Because the vast majority of trainings are held at LCDSS, there are no venue costs to provide, and no meal, travel, or lodging reimbursements are necessary for employees attending.

This renewal contract is for 32 training units to be used in fiscal year 19/20.
