"The CHIPR training materials are an excellent source of concise, up-to-date information.  They have proven to be a real time saver for me and also my fellow CCHC's in North Carolina.  I particularly like the Pre- and Post-tests that enable me to identify and document participant learning.  Also, having suggested activities complete with an "items needed" list is wonderful.  I have used many of these materials and have always had very positive responses from both the child care staff trainees and parents."
