| Have a Safe and Healthy New Year
Register today for Health and Safety workshops at 4C
The start of the year is the perfect time to review health and safety guidelines for your program!
Beginning this year, all child care providers in Kentucky are required to take "Pediatric Abuse Head Trauma." Register online for this free workshop on either Feb 2 at the 4C Northern Kentucky office or Feb. 28 at the Boone County Library. Both workshops are from 6:45 - 8:45 p.m.. Programs whose staff are unable to make these dates can schedule an on-site workshop by contacting Joni Aylor, 859-547-5087. |
New Policies in the New Year
Changes affect workshops in Southwest Ohio, the Miami Valley and Northern Kentucky
To improve the delivery of 4C workshops, effective Jan. 1, 2012, no latecomers are admitted into workshops after the scheduled start time. This policy ensures the best possible professional development experience and upholds the commitment that 4C has to the states of Ohio and Kentucky for accurate training credit.
If you arrive late to a class, you will be given a document that will verify that you attempted to attend the workshop. In some cases you will be able to request a training credit or transfer to make up for the missed workshop. Refunds will not be given for missed classes due to late arrival.

Mind in the Making
New series begins in March in Clermont County
Developed by the nationally-known Families and Work Institute (FWI) in New York City, "Mind in the Making" offers a first-of-its-kind approach to translating what we know about how young children learn into realistic application in program practice.
A set of 12 learning modules, each focused on a specific area of child development and learning, articulate the findings and insights of the nation's leading researchers in the fields of neuroscience, psychology, child development and education. Over six sessions, this series transforms years of complex research into a series of demonstrations and hands-on activities perfect for the classroom!
Register today for "Mind in the Making" on Mar. 5, Mar. 19, Apr. 2, Apr. 16, Apr. 30 and May 14 from 9 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. at Child Focus Training Center, 551 Cincinnati-Batavia Pike, Ste B, Cincinnati, Ohio 45244. Scholarships are available to child care providers in Clermont County! Contact Kim Ginn, 513-758-1220, for more information.
All sessions must be attended for completion of the series. However, in-service and specialized credit will be provided at the end of each module.
