About Your Instructor
Hi, I'm Ali Ryder
They call me a HIFIS Goddess
I guess you could say I'm the world's leading expert on HIFIS 4. I run ACRE Consulting and have been helping communities make the most of it since 2016.
I do other things too, like travel and play ultimate frisbee, but mostly I'm a big nerd that's good with computers and likes explaining stuff. I've been working in the homelessness sector since I got my Master's degree in social planning in 2012. Now I'm a coach with the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness.
So, you're in good hands! I'll walk you through the ins and outs of what you need to know about HIFIS so you can spend most of your time actually helping the people who need your help the most.
What You're Saying
It was detailed, easy to follow and comprehensive
A lot of great and to the point information
Helpful background information before I begin my case management training, thank you!
Super informative and in depth detail.
Very user friendly. I am excited to begin using HIFIS.
Very thorough course. When HIFIS is completely implemented, it will help us better serve people in our communities.
Each section was very descriptive and succeeded in explaining how to use it in addition to how it is utilized across every shelter.
Big improvement from the old HIFIS! Cant wait to try it out but I do like our notebooks and hand writing information. I would think it might feel cold and impersonal to use a computer during an intake. I found Ali Ryder to be very fast and effective communicator! Thanks for the training miss!
Also love the mailing lists between organizations!
I like the popcorn humor and yes I did chose it as an answer!!
The training was very informative and interesting. I think we should have practical demonstration every three month where we can assess situation and come up with more strategies to end homelessness.
