What is the California Early Care and Education Workforce Registry?

The registry is an efficient, web-based system designed to verify and securely store and track the employment, training, and education accomplishments of early childhood care and education (ECE) teachers and providers. Participation in the registry provides the opportunity to be part of a statewide data system for all early care and education professionals.
