A Registry Participant is our basic enrollment option, it is primarily for family child care providers, family child care facilities, Birth to Three Practitioners, and those participants not required to be on the Career Pathway. Registry participants are not required to submit any documentation, nor are they issued a Career Pathway Certificate. They are able to view their Learning History, view/print training certificates and enroll in trainings using the Training Calendar.
