The California Department of Social Services’ Child Care and Development Division (CDSS, CCDD) and WestEd’s Program for Infant Toddler/Care (PITC) are offering a free, virtual training series for FCC and FFN providers in March 2024, entitled PITC Academy.
The Academy is a six-session virtual training event for current FCC or FFN providers residing in California serving infants and toddlers. The Academy will provide PITC training in English, with simultaneous interpretation in Spanish and Chinese, and will highlight the unique assets and challenges of FCC and FFN providers.
Applications are currently open and will close when the Academy has reached capacity.
CDSS/CCDD is funding fellowship opportunities to provide enrollment at no cost to FCC and FFN providers. There are 350 fellowship spaces available to California residents based on the review of applications. This event is limited to California residents.
This is a six session training event that will be held throughout the month of March 2024. Details about each session are included below.
The Application is available in English, Spanish, and Chinese below. Please find a time when you can complete the full application, as the format will not allow you to save, step away, and return later to complete the process.
