The transition will begin soon with the following informational opportunities: In September, child care consultants will host in-person facility operator/administrator meetings within the counties they serve to provide additional guidance on the changes, the transition plan and timeline. Scotland County Provider Meeting • September 25th at 2pm – 1403 West Blvd., Laurinburg, NC 28352 Robeson County Provider Meeting • September 30th at 10am- 455 Caton Rd, Lumberton, NC 28360 Beginning In October, child care consultants will begin discussing the new rules in Section .3200; Standards for Two through Five Star Rated Licenses during licensing visits. Consultants will review the pathway options, identify facility needs, answer questions, and work with the facility operator to establish an individualized timeline for transition to a new rated license within 12 months based on the pathway chosen. We understand this is a big change and are committed to ensuring all providers have a good understanding of the new opportunities in order to make informed decisions on which pathway best suits the needs of the facility. We look forward to seeing you at these upcoming informational settings and working with you on your pathway to the stars! ABCMS Portal As stated in G.S. 110-90.2 & .2703(r) child care operators are to notify the Division of any new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. The process of notifying the Division has changed and is now captured in ABCMS. This change has been in effect since February 2024. Effective immediately, you will need to obtain a Business NCID and complete Provider Portal training in Moodle at https://www.dcdee.moodle.nc.gov/course/view.php?id=119. No action is needed on your part if you have completed the reference training and are currently using the ABCMS Provider Portal to update information regarding new hires or residents. Once the training has been completed and access has been given, you must verify your facility roster to ensure current staff are noted on the roster. This information should be updated in ABCMS in an ongoing basis as staff members are hired and when their employment is terminated. This satisfies the requirement to notify the Division of new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. The compliance of this rule will be monitored during your next visit. Please note, the hard copy of the Change of Information form will no longer be needed or accepted. Should you need assistance please contact the Criminal Background Check Unit at (919) 814-6401 and someone will assist you. The above information is for FCCH and Centers. All providers, administrators, directors, teachers, residents, and anyone else that may come into contact with the children will need to be added to the portal. Make sure to have your ABCMS roster on file and ready for review. Violations are currently being cited if you have not added all personnel and/or family members to the roster. This includes yourself as well. You must add new people to the list within 5 days of hire or moving in. Here are a few tips: • When you complete your ABCMS Moodle training, you will fill out a form with your business NCID and wait for an email to provide you with access to your provider portal. • When you have access, you will provide a code to your employees so they can fill out an application. • They will be required to upload their license or other picture ID. You will see them on your roster and hire them or not. • Hiring them will generate your roster. • Let me know if I may be of further assistance. I will need to confirm that your roster is current when I make a visit. Through collaborative efforts, the Division of Child Development and Early Education (DCDEE), and the North Carolina Child Care Health and Safety Resource Center, a program of the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health, are excited to announce that the CCDF Health and Safety trainings are now available in the DCDEE Moodle learning platform.

The process of notifying the Division has changed and is now captured in ABCMS. This change has been in effect since February 2024. Effective immediately, you will need to obtain a Business NCID and complete Provider Portal training in Moodle at https://www.dcdee.moodle.nc.gov/course/view.php?id=119. No action is needed on your part if you have completed the reference training and are currently using the ABCMS Provider Portal to update information regarding new hires or residents. Once the training has been completed and access has been given, you must verify your facility roster to ensure current staff are noted on the roster. This information should be updated in ABCMS in an ongoing basis as staff members are hired and when their employment is terminated. This satisfies the requirement to notify the Division of new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. The compliance of this rule will be monitored during your next visit. Please note, the hard copy of the Change of Information form will no longer be needed or accepted. Should you need assistance please contact the Criminal Background Check Unit at (919) 814-6401 and someone will assist you. The above information is for FCCH and Centers. All providers, administrators, directors, teachers, residents, and anyone else that may come into contact with the children will need to be added to the portal. Make sure to have your ABCMS roster on file and ready for review. Violations are currently being cited if you have not added all personnel and/or family members to the roster. This includes yourself as well. You must add new people to the list within 5 days of hire or moving in. Here are a few tips: • When you complete your ABCMS Moodle training, you will fill out a form with your business NCID and wait for an email to provide you with access to your provider portal. • When you have access, you will provide a code to your employees so they can fill out an application. • They will be required to upload their license or other picture ID. You will see them on your roster and hire them or not. • Hiring them will generate your roster. • Let me know if I may be of further assistance. I will need to confirm that your roster is current when I make a visit. Through collaborative efforts, the Division of Child Development and Early Education (DCDEE), and the North Carolina Child Care Health and Safety Resource Center, a program of the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health, are excited to announce that the CCDF Health and Safety trainings are now available in the DCDEE Moodle learning platform.
