Description

The six course, 18 credit sequence, leading to The Registry Administrator Credential is based on the competencies needed by child care center administrators as identified by The Registry, the leadership training courses at Wheelock College from 1975-1993, and the work of Gwen Morgan, Joe Perreault and Nancy Travis. Those who will benefit from this training include administrators and supervisors from full day and half day early care and education programs including: child care centers, family child care homes, Head Start, Pre-Kindergarten, early intervention programs and preschool or nursery schools. The courses are also designed to train new leadership for early childhood programs by preparing child care staff to assume increased responsibility and to provide orientation for others from related professions who wish to work in early childhood programs. The Registry Administrator Credential is approved to meet the requirements for Directors of programs accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. Effective February 1, 2009, The Department of Children and Families requires completion of the credential for directors of group child care programs licensed for 51 or more children within three years of assuming the position. Directors of programs licensed for 50 or fewer children will need to take one of the courses in the credential within one year of assuming the position. Individuals with advanced degrees may not be subject to this requirement. Click here for DCF Licensing Rules for Group Child Care Centers.
