“Credentialing Matters!” was offered on February 8, 2023. In this training, we delved into why credentialing matters. We explored each component of the credentialing system and the significance that each part brings. We then examined the multiple benefits of getting a credential and learned how a NH Early Childhood Professional Credential can bring value to you and quality to the profession.
At this time, Child Care Aware of New Hampshire is suggesting that individuals submit their Credential Application along with supporting documents via US Mail, rather than submitting through NHCIS.
