EMPOWER YOUR COC WITH MAP ANNUAL TRAINING

BUILD CONFIDENCE, CONSISTENCY, AND CAPACITY

The Matching for Appropriate Placement (MAP) assessment is a powerful, evidence-based tool designed to ensure that individuals experiencing homelessness are matched to the most appropriate housing and services. But even the best tools require skilled hands. That’s why we offer a comprehensive Annual MAP Training Program—a scalable solution to keep your Coordinated Entry (CE) system sharp, equitable, and effective year-round.

Why Annual Training?

Consistency Across the CoC: Annual training ensures that all staff, both new and experienced, apply MAP protocols uniformly, reducing variability in assessment quality and improving placement outcomes.

Data Integrity & Equity: Regular refreshers help reinforce best practices in interviewing, scoring, and documentation, which are essential for maintaining data quality and minimizing bias in service delivery.

Why Offer User-Directed Training for New Hires?

Onboarding Without Delay: New staff can access on-demand MAP training modules immediately, ensuring they’re equipped to assess clients accurately from day one.

Minimize Disruption: Self-paced learning reduces the burden on supervisors and ensures continuity in service delivery, even during periods of high staff turnover.

Build a Culture of Competence: Empowering staff to take ownership of their learning fosters confidence and accountability in their role within the CE system.
