If I complete the Maryland DDA required training classes at another agency, will Melwood accept that training?

Melwood’s Corporate Training and Development staff will make that decision. In order to make that decision you will either need to provide copies of the certificates you received once you completed the DDA trainings, or you will need to provide us with an official training transcript from your previous employer on company letterhead which states which classes you completed and the dates they were completed.

It is at the discretion of that agency.
