SHIFT's Organizational Accreditation process puts this education into practice, as the organization develops policies, procedures, systems and structures needed for a Technology First transformation. Accreditation is most appropriate for those organizations who are committed to adopting a Technology First culture.

SHIFT education is designed by highly qualified professionals with expertise in technology solutions, long-term support services, education, and organizational development & sustainability. Each certification has its own learning plan that includes: coursework, downloadable materials, and knowledge checks. SHIFT currently offers the following certifications:

The Enabling Technology Integration Specialist Certification (ETIS) is most appropriate for professionals who specialize in the integration of enabling technology. These professionals often work with a provider organization or state agency to complete assessments, identify & implement appropriate technology solutions, provide training, and serve as a resource & mentor to other staff.

The Enabling Technology Navigator Certification (ETN)  is most appropriate for people who are responsible for developing and writing person-centered plans (case managers, service coordinators, program coordinators, etc.).

The Enabling Technology Leadership Certification (ETL) is most appropriate for the person who leads an organization in the process of a Technology First culture shift.  This person will be the point of contact for the accreditation process, if applicable.
