DCY-C-2627-0098Q Fiscal Agent for Residential Staff Core Training

The purpose of this RFQ is to solicit proposals from qualified Offerors to serve as the administrative fiscal agent for the Residential Staff Core Training (RSCT). Children placed in residential care settings represent a highly vulnerable population within Ohio’s child welfare system and are often present with elevated needs related to trauma and crisis. Ensuring that child care staff and administrators receive required training in a timely manner is critical to meeting these needs and supporting positive outcomes. Ohio Administrative Code 5180:2-9-03 requires residential child care staff to complete specified training within defined timeframes. DCY developed the RSCT pathway, which is delivered through the Child and Adult Protective Services (CAPS) Learning Management System and serves approximately 180 CRAs statewide. DCY established RSCT to encourage participation and compliance. DCY seeks a Contractor to administer this program by collecting and validating training data, managing the application and intake process, processing incentive payments, and providing reporting to DCY. By May 15, 2026, DCY’s goal is for 100 percent of administrators, and at least 75 percent of child care staff, at each CRA to complete the RSCT
