Starting Dec 1, 2021, Licensed Family and Residential Certificate providers have to complete all required interactive training to be in compliance with the annual training rules. Interactive training can be:

• CCL training on licensing rules
• Care About Childcare classes
• classes and workshops at child care, early childhood, and parenting conferences
• real-time, interactive webinars about child care
• online instruction that requires completing a test for understanding
• high school or college class in child development or related subjects
• CCL Committee meeting attendance
• training by a child care association, if the certificate has "child care related" in the topic

Providers are to contact their licensor if they have any questions.

We are interested in your feedback concerning our training. To give feedback, please complete the Training Survey.

In an effort to help with staffing, we are allowing the following until the necessary rule changes are made:

• The director designee must be at least 18 years old.
• Caregivers who are 16 or 17 years old can have unsupervised access to children if:
  -- They are not volunteers,
  -- They are not left unsupervised for more than 2 consecutive hours per group of children, and
  -- The director or director designee is at the facility or on the off-site activity.

During inspections, licensors will ask to see a government-issued photo ID (or a copy of that ID) for each covered individual. This is to verify the identity of the covered individual and to ensure all covered individuals passed the background check.

The Covid-19 Child Care Manual contains information to help child care providers make the best decisions to ensure the health and safety of children in their care.
