Program Administrators: Accessing Comprehensive Resources
Program Administrators, including program directors, owners, education coordinators, public school administrators, and family child care owners, play a crucial role in shaping early learning environments. When completing the sign-up form, administrators should answer “Yes” to indicate their role. You will then be prompted to create a username and password and select your program’s name from the provided dropdown list. Once your application is submitted, it will be reviewed and typically approved within two business days, after which you will receive an email confirmation.
Upon approval, Program Administrators gain access to a comprehensive dashboard each time they log in. This dashboard provides an overview of your professional development history, as well as that of your staff. Furthermore, administrators can utilize the system to view reports detailing technical assistance visits conducted by Center staff, ensuring you are fully informed and supported in your role. The portal simplifies the process of registering yourself and your staff for Center professional development and RIELDS trainings, making it a central hub for program improvement.
Educators: Elevating Your Skills and Knowledge
Educators, including teachers, teacher assistants, and family child care staff, are at the heart of early learning experiences. To begin, educators should create an individual account within the system. This involves choosing a personal username and password and selecting your program’s name from the dropdown menu. After setting up your account, you can immediately log in and explore the available professional development courses and RIELDS trainings offered by the Center for Early Learning Professionals.
Should you encounter any difficulties locating your program in the dropdown list or have any other inquiries regarding registration or our services, please do not hesitate to contact the Center for Early Learning Professionals. You can reach us by phone at 401-736-9020 or by email at [email protected]. We are here to support you in your professional journey and ensure you have access to the resources you need to excel in early childhood education.
