Your Ohio BWC Substance Use Prevention and Recovery (SUPR) partner.
First Connect is an Ohio BWC SUPR program provider.
Whether your goal is to meet contractor requirements for public improvement projects or to earn rebates through the Basic or Advanced SUPR levels, First Connect guides you through the entire process. When an employer selects us as their Substance Use Prevention and Recovery (SUPR) program provider, they gain far more than a training vendor. They gain a partner.

Train the Trainer program
Our Train the Trainer program gives your organization the tools to deliver high-quality education from within. We prepare a member of your team to confidently present new hire and annual employee education, as well as supervisor reasonable suspicion training.
Your designated trainer receives step-by-step instruction, a complete PowerPoint presentation, a detailed Trainer’s Guide, and ongoing support whenever questions arise. Each year, we refresh our curriculum and employee education materials so your staff always receives accurate, up-to-date, and engaging content. Train the Trainer certificates remain valid for three years.
