Professional Development and Training
Due to State Licensing regulations for training hours, it is of utmost importance that providers have a resource to turn to for training opportunities. The 4C of the U.P. offers several Michigan Child Care Futures Training sessions and Provider Alliance Meetings without charge.* We also offer other training sessions at a very minimal cost.
Please contact the 4C of the U.P. Regional Office or follow the links below for more information.
