Dear Karamu Providers:
USDA regulations require that all childcare providers participating on the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) must attend at least one formal training session each year provided by their CACFP sponsor.
We plan to conduct training via live streaming webinar and pre-recorded on-demand video. See below for our training schedule and registration links. We understand a few people were hoping for an in-person training session this year, but so far there has not been enough interest program-wide to justify putting any in-person sessions on the calendar.
Provided below are training presentations, handouts, and a number of other supplemental training resources which are to be used in conjunction with the annual training session. For those who choose our live webinar session, also provided in this e-mail are tips on how to access Zoom, the videoconferencing app we will use.
As a CACFP sponsor, we take our responsibilities very seriously - this includes our government mandated requirement to provide training to our sponsored providers once a year. We understand some of you may occasionally receive invitations to attend CACFP training offered by sponsors who use CACFP training as a marketing tool to recruit new providers. Please be mindful that for CACFP purposes you will only receive CACFP training credit by attending training that we provide.
Thanks and stay safe, everyone!
Tony Corley
