Child Care Training Available

Child care education training for those thinking of starting in the child care business, or already providing care to children, is offered by Michigan State University Extension. Licensed in-home or center providers, relative care providers, aides, foster parents, and parents are welcome to attend the Better Kid Care training in Chippewa County and Mackinac County.

The series started Monday, January 14, and will meet once a month.

Training will take place at the Department of Human Services office on 463 East Third Avenue in Sault Ste. Marie, and the Mackinac County Airport Meeting Room in St. Ignace.

Participants may register for all of the sessions, or can pick and choose. Each session is worth three hours of personal development credit.

Registration is required, and can be made by calling the Chippewa County MSU Extension office at (906) 635-6368 or the Mackinac County MSU Extension office at 643-7307.
