We are excited to invite you to participate in a research study focused on the efficacy of Child-Centered Documentation (CCD) framework. This study aims to explore how training in this framework can enhance therapists’ confidence in the care they provide as well as their documentation process, while also reducing burnout.

Click here for more information about the CCD framework.

Participation in this study involves:

• Completing three online surveys over the course of approximately 3 months
• Participating in the CCD training program either in October-December 2024 OR January-February 2025

Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups:

1. October Training Group: Completes the surveys in October to December and receives the training on October 24, November 7, November 21 and December 5, 2024 @ 9:30am – 1pm PST for all sessions (Assigned participants will need to register for the training for these dates. See the Compensation section below for rebate information.)
2. January Training Group: Completes the surveys alongside the first group in October to December, and then is eligible to register for the training on January 16, January 30, February 13, February 27, 2025 @ 9:30am – 1pm PST for all sessions (Assigned participants will be given a promo code to register for the January CCD training program upon completion of the surveys. See the Compensation section below for more information.)

All participants, regardless of their group assignment, will be required to complete surveys at three time points:

1. Before October 12, 2024
2. Between November 8 and 21, 2024
3. After December 5, 2024

The surveys will be conducted online via Qualtrics and will take about 10 minutes each to complete. Your participation in all three surveys is crucial to the success of our study, regardless of which group you are assigned to. Your insights and experiences will be invaluable in helping us understand the impact of this approach and in shaping future training programs for therapists.

Compensation includes:

1. October Training Group: A $250 USD* gift card upon completion of all three surveys and the entire CCD training program
2. January Training Group: A $250 USD* off promo code for the January-February 2025 CCD training upon completion of all three surveys

*About 35% of the total training cost

Please note that this opportunity is available only to those without prior training in CCD.
