(a) Completed the Family Child Care Overview session;

(b) A current certification in first aid and infant and child CPR. CPR training must have practical hands-on instruction. CPR courses that involve an on-line component with hands-on instruction may be accepted. Strictly on-line CPR training is not acceptable.

(d) Have completed a minimum of two hours of training on child abuse and neglect that is specific to Oregon law;

(e) Completed Introduction to Child Care Health & Safety Training; and

(2) When a registered family child care provider submits a renewal application, the CCLD shall, prior to approving it, receive evidence from the provider that the provider has:

(a) A current certification in first aid and infant and child CPR. CPR training must have practical hands-on instruction. CPR courses that involve an on-line component with hands-on instruction may be accepted. Strictly on-line CPR training is not acceptable.

(b) A current food handler certification pursuant to ORS 624.570; and

(c) Completed a minimum of ten hours of training during the two years preceding the renewal date. The training must be related to the core knowledge categories in the Oregon Registry. At least six clock hours of the ten hours of training must be in child development or early childhood education. A training on recognizing and reporting child abuse and neglect will be accepted after five years (and every five years thereafter) as part of the ten clock hours of training required for licensing, but will not be accepted as part of the required child development training hours.

(d) Completed CCLD approved health and safety training.

(A) CCLD will accept duplicate training one additional time if it is a Set 2 (intermediate) or Set 3 (advanced) training or above as described by the Oregon Center for Career Development in Childhood Care and Education; and it is not taken within the same license period.

(B) The following core knowledge categories are accepted for the child development and early childhood education requirement: Diversity (D), Family and Community Systems (FCS), Human Growth and Development (HGD), Health Safety and Nutrition (HSN), Learning Environments and Curriculum (LEC), Observation and Assessment (OA), Special Needs (SN), and Understanding and Guiding Behavior (UGB).

(3) When a person submits a reopen application, the CCLD shall, prior to approving it, receive evidence from the individual that the individual has:

(b) A current food handler certification pursuant to ORS 624.570; and

(c) Documentation that individual has ten hours of training related to the Oregon Registry core knowledge categories since the individual's last active child care license was issued. If the individual was previously licensed for less than two years, the training requirements will be prorated as follows: 2.5 hours of training for each six months of the previous license period. A training on recognizing and reporting child abuse and neglect will be accepted again after five years (and every five years thereafter) as part of the ten clock hours of training required for licensing, but will not be accepted as part of the required child development training hours.

(d) CCLD will accept duplicate training one additional time if it is a Set 2 (intermediate) or Set 3 (advanced) training or above as described by the Oregon Center for Career Development in Childhood Care and Education; and it is not taken within the same license period.

(e) Completed CCLD approved health and safety training.

(f) Completed CCLD approved safe sleep training. If the reopen is the result of an address change, the person must complete the CCLD approved safe sleep training by January 1, 2019.

(4) While the registered family child care license is active, the provider must maintain current certification in first aid, infant and child CPR, food handler training, and must complete one hour of training in the category of Health, Safety & Nutrition (HSN) during each year of the two-year license period.

(5) After September 30, 2022, staff members must complete CCLD-approved child development training within 90 days of employment unless the training was completed previously.

(6) Notwithstanding OAR 414-205-0040(13)(d), 414-205-0055(1)(b), 414-205-0055(2)(a), 414-205-0055(3)(a), an online-only CPR certification obtained between March 24, 2020 and June 30, 2022 will be accepted to meet the training requirement until the certification expires.
