Program Information
Virtual training events are professional development opportunities that require your attendance, full attention, and participation. You should not participate in activities that would not be permitted during an in-person class (i.e. cooking, driving, sleeping, salon visits, etc.). If the virtual class expectations are not met, you will not receive KDHE clock hours, a certificate of completion or a credit/refund.
Masks ARE RECOMMENDED for ALL Child Care Licensing in-person classes. Thank you in advance for your cooperation and understanding.
Please note, most classes are being offered as HYBRID trainings. Meaning, you will find two registration options for one training - you have the option to register for the in-person class or the ZOOM class. Both options will be held on the same date and time.
Payment is required at the time of registration, if payment is not made at that time, you will be cancelled from the class. Cancellation allows you to be able to go back in later and reregister and pay for the class. Once payment is made your spot is confirmed.
No refunds on any class. If you need to cancel you will be transferred to a upcoming class or a credit to your account for the class will be given. Credits and transfers must be requested at least 24 hours before the class begins. Contact Stacey Stroh or call 913-477-8078 if you need assistance.
