Funded in 2019, this 5-year project seeks to strengthen the field’s understanding of the role of the child care and early education (CCEE) licensing system. Features of CCEE licensing systems include, but are not limited to, establishing licensing standards, practices to monitor provider compliance, pre-service and ongoing health and safety training for CCEE providers, and training and management of licensing staff to perform roles related to monitoring and ensuring compliance. This project will: 1. Identify and address gaps in knowledge about how key features of the CCEE licensing system are related to CCEE quality and outcomes for children, families, and key stakeholders (e.g., child care providers, licensing agencies, and state administrators) and 2. Develop resources to support states and territories in evaluating and strengthening their licensing systems.
