Trainings/Continuing Education

Training requirements for licensed child care providers are critical in promoting a minimum level of health, safety, supervision and quality in child care.
There are two types of training requirements – pre-service training requirements and on-going training requirements. This fact sheet shows training requirements for licensed child care providers that are set forth in current law. Pre-service Training Minnesota law requires licensed child care providers to take pre-service training before caring for children and/or licensure. Pre-service training ensures providers have the knowledge and skills necessary to provide a healthy and safe environment for the children in care. This is why many of the pre-service training requirements are focused on health and safety.
