ChildCareEd Subscriptions FAQs

Can I assign training to my staff through subscriptions?

Yes!
With the ChildCareEd Admin Portal (formerly Group Admin), directors and program leaders can purchase group subscriptions in bulk at discounted rates and assign staff subscriptions directly through their dashboard.

Each staff member will then log in to their own account, activate their subscription, and select courses to begin training.

At this time, Admins cannot assign individual courses to staff within a subscription. If you are interested in this feature or need assistance, please contact Customer Support for help.
