Prevention Hub Orientation

New SUPP staff are encouraged to view the Prevention Hub Orientation modules provided in the IISUP II online self-paced training. The orientation is a series of modules that will review the features of the Prevention Hub and provide an overview of required reporting components.

Important information regarding the Prevention Hub Orientation:

If you have not yet taken IISUP II, the Prevention Hub component is available with the IISUP II required course component. Since the Hub Tutorial course is optional, it does not need to be completed to get credit for completing IISUP II. However, the HUB tutorial will at least need to be launched and you will need to view the first three slides of the Introduction Module before you will be directed to complete the IISUP II evaluation and post-test. Once the HUB tutorial is launched, you may go back in at any time and complete the modules at your own pace.
If you have already completed IISUP II, the Prevention Hub Orientation component is now available on your IISUP II home page in your training account. You are encouraged to view this component if you are new to the Hub or would like a refresher. Each of the modules may be viewed independently of others.
