TrainTN is a companion to the Tennessee Professional Archive of Learning (TNPAL) and is designed for training professionals who wish to offer trainings to child care agency staff in order to meet Tennessee Licensure Rules for Child Care Agencies (1240-04-01) as well as Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) training and professional development requirements.
Beginning November 1, 2021, the Tennessee Department of Human Services (TDHS) will only recognize external or non-agency-based training sources approved through TrainTN. All prior approvals granted to external training sources that are not TrainTN approved will expire later this fall and no longer be recognized by TDHS.
Join other TDHS partner training organizations by offering recognized training.
