Child Care Connection encourages all early childhood professionals to join the NJ Workforce Registry.

The NJ Workforce Registry is an on-line database that records and recognizes a person’s education, training, and work experience in the field of early childhood education. The goal of the Registry is to help participants track their annual professional development hours while providing data about the NJ early childhood workforce.  Students can also register for classes through the Registry. Active members can print their membership card and Education and Training Report, which is a summary of any degrees, certifications, college experience, and credentials they may have, as well as any training attended. Joining the Registry is done online and there is no membership fee.

Visit www.njccis.com to view detailed information and step-by-step instructions on how to join the Registry. If you have questions about joining the Registry, please call the NJ Workforce Registry at 1-800-332-6512.
