Child Care Support Network
Are you tired of the time and effort involved in arranging trainings for child care employees? Have busy schedules and the high cost of gas impacted training efforts? The Child Care Support Network (CCSN) CE Test can help.
How it works/cost: Child care providers can complete the CE Test at their convenience. They read the three-page article, answer the questions on the back, and turn it in to their supervisor. Participating CCSN child care agencies, in turn, can then credit the child care provider with one hour of training each month and then issue a certificate of completion to the child care employee. A one year Agency membership to the CCSN CE Test includes one agency CE Test with answers, one certificate of completion and one child care provider CE Test per month for *$36 annually (Additional tests for child care providers cost *$18/year, that’s only $1.50 per 1 hour of training credit.) See also the FAQ link, or call us with questions at 715-258-2448. *Prices may vary in states due to different state training requirements. If you reside in the state of Washington or Kentucky, please call us at 1-800-350-4422 for pricing!
Who can join/what is covered: Both private, and public agencies and organizations can sign up. New CE Tests are published monthly. Noted experts in the child care field often cover topics. We always encourage you to check with the licensing entity in your state to ensure that this type of training will be counted toward training hours. See our editorial calendar for topics scheduled to be covered in 2008.
