Guardianship Court Process and Forms
This training course is designed to provide new guardianship staff with a basic understanding of the court process and required forms.
The guardianship court process is required by law and takes place in District Courts in each county across the state.

This course will review the court process required to determine the level of guardianship including:
- Court forms
- Legal representation individuals are entitled to
- What happens in a hearing
- What it means to be adjudicated disabled
- What role State Guardianship will have
Course Length: This course will take approximately 1 hour to complete.
