Direct Care Worker Training

DCW Training is a required certification for anyone providing Attendant Care services in Arizona. AZA United offers DCW Training classes to all AZA employees and providers for free.
Please note, DCW training is only available for AZA providers. At this time we are unable to offer this training to the general public.
If you will be providing Attendant Care services through AZA United, our team will send you an online training module that must be completed first. Once that is done, you must complete in-person testing to complete your DCW certification. Use the links on this page to register for an in-person testing date.
