Employer Administrative Access Request Submission

The California Early Care and Education (ECE) Workforce Registry (the Registry) is a web-based data system that maintains demographic and verified education and professional development information for members of the early care and education workforce in an electronic portfolio.

The Registry takes the protection of members’ personal information seriously. Some information about Registry members can be shared with employers who have been authorized to receive Employer Administrative Access. Sharing information with employers supports professional development planning and reduces the need for multiple submissions of child development permits, transcripts, training records, credentials and other documentation. Administrators, or designated staff in organizations that employ members of the workforce (ex. Human Resources), who have been granted Administrative Access can also verify key information about their employees and obtain reports with verified data, including Quality Counts California staff qualifications scores. The Registry is currently available statewide through support from a collaboration of funders.

Administrative Access helps to ensure that the Registry has current and accurate information about ECE programs and their staff. It also helps to streamline reporting to state agencies and other funders. In order to receive Administrative Access, approved individuals must agree to do the following:

• Be an active member of the Registry
• Maintain an active e-mail account that is linked to your Registry profile
• Maintain an accurate and complete Program Profile by confirming or updating information annually
• Maintain accurate information about employees by confirming or updating information monthly
• Protect the security and integrity of personal information about employees in the Registry

Administrative Access allows you to use the Registry to generate staff reports, verify staff employment, maintain your program’s profiles, enroll staff in trainings, and post job announcements on the Job Board. To request Administrative Access:
