TRAINING INITIATIVE
PROGRAM
Supporting professional growth for Reno County child care providers has been an important part of the Reno County Child Care Task Force’s work.
Through ARPA funding, the Task Force was able to sponsor free local training opportunities, provide financial support for Pediatric CPR & First Aid certification, and offer a $15/hour training incentive to Reno County child care providers.
As ARPA funding has come to an end, all RCCTF-sponsored training programs and financial support have now concluded.
We are grateful to the providers, trainers, and community partners who participated in and supported these initiatives.
While RCCTF-sponsored training support has ended, child care providers can continue to access professional development opportunities through local and statewide organizations. Explore the resources below to find available training opportunities.
