Employee Awareness Training
|
|
|
The
Council offers an employee training
curriculum for venues that want to
improve how they provide a
responsible gambling environment.
WHEN THE STAKES ARE TOO HIGH™
Understanding Problem Gambling
The
gaming industry in California is
concerned with problem gambling.
The Council has responded to the
increasing requests to assist the
gambling venues in their efforts to
provide a responsible gambling
environment and to address problem
gambling with the introduction of a
four-level employee awareness
program titled WHEN THE STAKES ARE
TOO HIGH™.
This
program is offered in four different
levels to accommodate all sizes of
gambling establishments. The
Employee Training
program is recommended for
properties with 20-250 employees.
The
Train the Trainer
program,
Management and Supervisor
program and
the
Full
Certification program are recommended
for properties with over 250
employees.
The
central purpose of each program is
to provide a detailed overview of
problem gambling and the resources
available for help.
