In addition to the professional development course library, ChildCare Education Institute’s CDA Certificate program may be used to fulfill the education requirements for the CDA National Credentialing Program required by the Council for Professional Recognition.

“CCEI has applied an immense amount of dedication and persistence to be approved in 48 states for child care training,” says Maria C. Taylor, President and CEO of CCEI. “We are very proud to have our first few courses approved in North Dakota and look forward to adding many more to serve early care professionals in North Dakota and, as a result, the children and families who depend on them.”
