Mandated Reporter Training
This is NOT a one-time training. If "MRT" appears on your list of things to do in your Virtus account it means that it has been three years since you completed mandated reporter training and you need to recertify. MRT is only valid for three year certification periods. You can recertify through your VIRTUS account.
