Objectives:  The purpose of the California Child Care (CACC) Program is to teach individuals who work in the childcare field the knowledge and skills they need to keep children who are in their care safe and healthy.  This state-specific course was developed in response to California Government Code, Training Standards for Child Care Providers, Title 22, Division 9, Chapter 1 and satisfies the requirements as stated in that code.  All childcare providers will benefit from attending this program.  However, there are childcare providers in California who must take the training (any person who provides childcare in a licensed child day-care facility). 

The program is made up of two modules, totaling fifteen hours of training. The module advertised on this page is Preventative Health and Safety, which is taught over seven hours and includes preventative health practices, including food preparation and sanitation practices that reduce the spread of infectious diseases.  Individuals who successfully complete this module will receive an Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA) sticker on their certificate. This certificate does not expire unless an individual's license expires.  

The other module is California Child Care: Pediatric First Aid & CPR (class schedule on a separate page), which is taught over eight hours and covers how to respond to breathing and cardiac emergencies, pediatric first aid and injury prevention.  Generally speaking, the term "pediatric" in government regulations refers to newborns through individuals who are 18 years of age.  The CPR certificate expires after one year and the Pediatric First Aid certificate expires after 2 years.

Prerequisites:  None

In our continuing efforts to provide the best customer service to our students and due to our limited class size, we need to ensure that participants attend the courses that they schedule.  If a participant schedules a course and does not attend this limits us from allowing the opportunity for another participant to attend to the course.  Therefore, in fairness to all participants, participants who do not attend their scheduled classes will forfeit their registration fees. 

Unless ARC cancels the course and we are unable to transfer the student into another class, course fees are non-refundable.  Participants are able to reschedule 3 working days prior to the original course date. A $10.00 reschedule fee will be charged for this service.
