CDA March 2024

We will be offering a CDA course in March 2024.

The Child Development Associate (CDA) Credential is the most recognized professional development benchmark for family child care providers, center-based or school setting staff.  The national Council for Professional Recognition administers the CDA program and awards the CDA Credential to studens that complete the program requirements.

STEP ONE to register for our March 26th start date you must complete a Registration Application and mail to 6724 Thompson Rd, Syracuse 13211 or send by e-mail as a PDF (photos are not accepted) to ccs@childcaresolutionscny.org.  We MUST receive your application to start the process.  Please read this updated application carefully as some things have changed.

NEXT STEP is to register your name on the PDP website to apply for your EIP Award.  Applying is quick and easy and will pay your full scholarship.  We need to confirm your payment for this course before we can finalize your registration.  If we don't see confirmation of this on PDP by March 22nd you will be required to pay a $50 registration fee and you will be put on a payment plan.  We will e-mail you a payment link so you can make this payment; you may also call us to make a charge card payment.
