ChildCareEd is on the MiRegistry! - post

ChildCareEd is on the MiRegistry! Many Michigan providers complete required preservice trainings through ChildCareEd — start with Mandated Reporters Buy Now $16.00 and Transportation Safety Buy Now $16.00 to meet common health-and-safety preservice needs.

ChildCareEd is an Approved Training Sponsor Organization with the MiRegistry. Many Michigan child care professionals use ChildCareEd courses to complete preservice and annual training requirements; for example, you can complete foundational health and safety trainings such as Mandated Reporters Buy Now $16.00 and Transportation Safety Buy Now $16.00 through ChildCareEd and have credit recorded in MiRegistry.

What is MiRegistry and why does it matter for Michigan child care providers?

MiRegistry is Michigan’s workforce registry for early childhood professionals. It centralizes individual training records, helps programs and registries verify completed trainings, and supports credentialing and professional development tracking. For Michigan providers, using MiRegistry means training completed through an approved sponsor can be applied directly to your registry account, simplifying compliance with preservice and annual requirements.

How do I create and access my MiRegistry account and avoid common login problems?

Many Michigan child care professionals complete the MiRegistry enrollment or account setup before they start submitting training credits. To create and access your MiRegistry account and reduce delays in credit posting, follow these steps:

1. Create your MiRegistry account using the name and email you use at work. Use the exact name and email that appear in your ChildCareEd profile so training completions can be matched reliably.
2. Confirm your contact information and program affiliation. If you work at a licensed center, add the program information MiRegistry requests so your training can be associated with the correct employer record.
3. When you complete a ChildCareEd course, download the certificate and confirm the certificate shows the course title, date, clock hours, and your full name exactly as it appears in MiRegistry. Save a copy for your files.
4. If you receive an automated mismatch or credit-posting error, first check for small differences (middle initials, alternate email addresses, name order). Correct either your MiRegistry profile or your ChildCareEd account data to match, then request the credit reposting following the ChildCareEd certificate instructions.
5. For login problems: use the MiRegistry password-reset option, verify your account email, and check spam folders for verification messages. If you still cannot access your account, contact MiRegistry support using the contact information in your MiRegistry account dashboard.

Tip: keep a single, consistently formatted name and primary email across your professional accounts (MiRegistry, employer, and ChildCareEd) to prevent mismatches. For step-by-step help on how ChildCareEd and MiRegistry work together to track and post hours, see our guide How can Michigan childcare providers use MiRegistry and ChildCareEd to track and finish training hours online? and our summary of preservice processes: What are preservice trainings in Michigan and how do providers complete them?. If you need the official regulatory text or agency guidance, request the MiRegistry or Michigan licensing specialist contact details from your program director or MiRegistry support so you can verify specific regulatory requirements.

How do ChildCareEd courses work with MiRegistry and which courses count for preservice topics?

ChildCareEd is listed as an Approved Training Sponsor Organization in MiRegistry. When a participant completes a qualifying ChildCareEd course that is listed on MiRegistry, the training credit can be submitted to MiRegistry for direct posting to the participant’s account.

Which official Michigan sources should be cited?

Editor action required: Insert the authoritative Michigan MiRegistry homepage and the Michigan child care licensing/regulatory guidance (for example, the licensing agency or Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs pages that describe preservice and annual training requirements) as inline references here. After the editorial team fetches and verifies those official URLs, replace this notice with the two formatted inline citations (MiRegistry homepage; Michigan licensing/regulatory page) and a one-sentence summary of what each source says about preservice and annual training requirements (for example, which topics or hours are mandated and how to record training). Per editorial rules, do not publish until those verified external links and short citation summaries are added.
