We are encouraging all staff to begin their renewal process early to avoid lapses in their qualification. RATED LICENSE REASSESSMENT This facility prep year is from July 1, 2023-June 30, 2024. The facility reassessment year will not begin until July 1, 2024. During this time, the provider will decide whether they wish to have the Environment Rating Scale Assessment conducted. We discussed making sure the provider WORKS account reflects her current degree. We discussed reviewing the NCRLAP website ERS resources (www.NCRLAP.org) for updated information. Ms. Bryson is aware that she can request an ERS assessment free of charge during the preparation, and depending on the scores, they can be used as guidance to enhance program quality.
