Can I complete child care training anytime, anywhere?

Yes! Many ChildCareEd courses are self-paced and online, which means you do not have to attend a class at a specific time.

After you enroll, you can log in to your ChildCareEd account, open your course, and work through the chapters at your own pace.

You can study:

• At home
• During a break
• In the evening
• On weekends
• From a computer, tablet, or smartphone

You can stop and return to the course later, making online training easier to fit around work and family responsibilities.

How does self-paced online training work?

Self-paced training allows you to control when you complete your coursework.

Once you purchase an online course, it becomes available in the My Trainings section of your ChildCareEd account.

You can:

1. Log in to your account.
2. Open My Trainings.
3. Select your course.
4. Open a chapter.
5. Complete the lessons and required activities.
6. Return later if you need a break.
7. Complete the final requirements when you are ready.

ChildCareEd offers many self-paced online courses, from short professional development trainings to longer CDA programs.

How long do I have to finish my online course?

For a regular ChildCareEd purchase, learners generally have one year from the date of purchase to complete the course.

For example, if you purchase a course on August 12, 2026, your regular course access would expire on August 12, 2027.

Courses purchased or assigned through a voucher, EIP, or another special funding program may have different deadlines, so always follow the requirements connected to that program.

Can I complete my training in small sections?

Yes. You do not have to finish most self-paced courses in one sitting.

You can complete one chapter, take a break, and return later. This can be especially helpful for child care professionals who are balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.

Try setting small goals, such as:

• Completing one chapter each evening
• Studying for 20 to 30 minutes at a time
• Finishing one course each week
• Setting aside time on weekends

Small, consistent study sessions can make longer training easier to manage.

How can I check my completed ChildCareEd training hours?

You can view individual courses in the My Trainings section of your account.

If you want to see a full list of your completed ChildCareEd courses and the exact training hours, use your ChildCareEd transcript.

To view your transcript:

1. Log in to your ChildCareEd account.
2. Click on your name.
3. Click Transcript.
4. Click Print Transcript.

Your transcript provides a convenient list of your completed training and associated hours.

The document will say “Unofficial Transcript.” This is normal because ChildCareEd is a professional training provider and is not a college or university.

How do I receive my certificate?

All ChildCareEd courses, including free courses, come with a certificate of completion after you successfully complete the course requirements.

Your certificate is sent to the email address connected to the account you used to complete the course.

Certificates are not stored inside your ChildCareEd account.

If you are looking for a certificate, check:

• Your email inbox
• Your spam folder
• Your junk folder

If you cannot locate an older certificate, contact ChildCareEd for assistance.

Can I use online training for state licensing requirements?

Online training may be accepted for licensing or professional development requirements, but state requirements vary.

Before registering for a course specifically to meet a licensing requirement, check your state licensing agency's requirements and review the course information.

ChildCareEd offers many online courses designed for early childhood educators, including health and safety, child development, classroom management, CDA training, and other professional development topics.

Can I take CDA training online at my own pace?

Yes. ChildCareEd offers self-paced online CDA training options, including full 120-hour credential training.

These courses allow learners to work through the education portion of their CDA journey on their own schedule.

You can explore ChildCareEd's CDA and other online training options here:

Can directors assign online training to employees?

Yes. Child care directors can use ChildCareEd's Admin Portal to purchase training, assign courses to employees, and monitor employee progress. ChildCareEd also provides group tools for managing staff training.

This can be helpful for programs that need to organize annual training or professional development for several employees.
