Bright Minds Training is here to serve as a training resource for child care programs.  Our goal is to offer courses that inform, engage and provide practical guidance. We aim to provide courses that will help make your day to day lives easier as you connect with children and change their lives. We hope that our courses will help make you an even better early childcare educator.

Bright Minds Training provides online courses for teachers and staff of childcare centers and in-home childcare.  All trainings are authored by one of our credentialed trainers and meet the requirements for Early Care and Education clock hours in many states.
