Sponsoring Organizations
A Sponsoring Organization in the Oregon Professional Development System is a partner within the state childhood care and education infrastructure that provides, coordinates, or facilitates community based training sessions for professionals in the field of childhood care and education. Examples include resource and referral programs, professional organizations, such as OAEYC, PRO, and OACCD, Head Start programs, and child care programs.
Sponsoring Organizations support the use of certified Oregon Registry Trainers. Sponsoring Organizations also can benefit from the use of trainers who are not certified in the Oregon Registry Trainer program.
The roles and responsibilities for Sponsoring Organizations give details about Sponsoring Organizations in the Oregon Registry Trainer Program. Sponsoring Organizations must complete a registration form and submit it to OCCD.
A Sponsoring Organization administrator may designate one or more “Representatives” who will assure that community-based training sessions offered by trainers who are not certified in the Oregon Registry Trainer Program meet standards of the professional development system. Each representative must submit a registration form and document successful completion of the Sponsoring Organization Representative Orientation.
